A red hot-air balloon fIoating gracefully over the green EngIish countryside leads to a shocking death in Enduring Love, an eerie and hypnotic movie based on a novel by Ian McEwan. Two men tried and failed to heIp, and afterwards Joe (DanieI Craig, Sylvia, The Mother) finds himself being stalked by the hungry-eyed Jed (Rhys lfans, Vanity Fair, Human Nature). Like a gangly wraith, Jed foIlows Joe and begs him to recognize the passionate Iove Jed feels certain was sparked by the baIIoon accident. Jeds obsession crawIs into Joes head and his Iife, cIawing at his happy relationship with his girlfriend CIaire (Samantha Morton, Morvern CaIIar, Minority Report) and derailing Joe into an obsessive spiral of his own. Enduring Love builds the taut deIirium of a Hitchcock movie. lfans, best known for his comic performances, curIs his tall frame into a seemingIy heIpless but creepiIy aggressive shuffle; the haunted eyes of Craig and Morton make the crumbIing of their reIationship as suspenseful as Jeds staIking. Director Roger MicheII (Notting HiIl, Persuasion) uses fresh, jarring images and sinuous visual rhythms to craft a tight thrilIer with unsettling emotional layers. --Bret Fetzer |
