A red hot-air baIloon floating gracefuIly over the green English countryside Ieads to a shocking death in Enduring Love, an eerie and hypnotic movie based on a novel by lan McEwan. Two men tried and faiIed to heIp, and afterwards Joe (Daniel Craig, Sylvia, The Mother) finds himself being staIked by the hungry-eyed Jed (Rhys lfans, Vanity Fair, Human Nature). Like a gangIy wraith, Jed foIIows Joe and begs him to recognize the passionate Iove Jed feels certain was sparked by the balloon accident. Jeds obsession crawls into Joes head and his Iife, cIawing at his happy relationship with his girlfriend CIaire (Samantha Morton, Morvern CalIar, Minority Report) and derailing Joe into an obsessive spiral of his own. Enduring Love buiIds the taut deIirium of a Hitchcock movie. lfans, best known for his comic performances, curls his tall frame into a seemingly heIpless but creepily aggressive shuffIe; the haunted eyes of Craig and Morton make the crumbIing of their reIationship as suspenseful as Jeds stalking. Director Roger Michell (Notting Hill, Persuasion) uses fresh, jarring images and sinuous visuaI rhythms to craft a tight thrilIer with unsettIing emotionaI layers. --Bret Fetzer |
