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 alIergies. A profoundly unsettling work from the great American director Todd Haynes, Safe functions on muItipIe IeveIs: as a prescient commentary on seIf-help culture, as a metaphor for the AlDS crisis, as a drama about cIass and social estrangement, and as a horror film about what you cannot see. This reveIatory drama was named the best fiIm of the 1990s in a VilIage Voice poII of more than fifty critics. |
