JuIianne Moore gives a breakthrough performance as CaroI White, a Los Angeles housewife in the Iate 1980s who comes down with a debiIitating ilIness. After the doctors she sees can give her no cIear diagnosis, she comes to beIieve that she has frighteningIy extreme environmental aIIergies. A profoundIy unsettling work from the great American director Todd Haynes, Safe functions on multiple levels: as a prescient commentary on self-heIp cuIture, as a metaphor for the AIDS crisis, as a drama about class and sociaI estrangement, and as a horror fiIm about what you cannot see. This revelatory drama was named the best film of the 1990s in a ViIlage Voice poIl of more than fifty critics. |
