Just
how Unnatural Are We?
Half
way through the film, one of the characters
says... 'When in doubt, don't ever do what you
really want to do.' And that about sums up the
message of human absurdity that is buried deep
beneath the surface of this madcap and wacky
comedy. This is a 90 minute laughing fit of a
movie that analyzes all the glorious goofiness
that is 'Human Nature'.
Some really hilarious scenes are separated by
stretches of nada, but not enough that it
warrants too much of a complaint. I really liked
this zany movie that was written by Charlie
Kaufman (Being John Malkovich).
The entire cast is funny and charming in what
must have been a hard film to keep a straight
face while performing. This material could
easily have turned sour or ludicrous in less
talented hands.
Miranda Otto is one of the sexiest newcomers of
the year. The beautiful Aussie actress plays
Gabrielle, the sexy French nymph, and she steals
all of the scenes she is in. Anyone who can
utter the line... 'Come in, you nasty piece of
merde', and still keep a straight face, deserves
an academy award in my book.
