Laws of Attraction

Like the Coen brothers’ Intolerable Cruelty, this aims to recreate the witty glamour of classic screwball
comedies by setting a romance within the world of divorce. Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore, as opposing divorce attorneys who fall for each other, work up only a television series’ level of chemistry, when a movie deserves stars who sizzle – like Cruelty‘s George Clooney and
Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Drama Rated NR

“… a scrappy, neo-realist tale of societal scrounging that’s paused by poetic moments of slow cinema.”

Tropical Malady (2004)

Drama Rated NR

“Unusually sensitive, in the sense that every element seems to pulse with its own life force. . .”
