Wonderfully offbeat film!

... View MoreBeautiful film, although they never quite tied up the four stories. It was fun to see Emma Thompson and Phyllida Law in the same movie, but it left me a little confused, with the two funeral ladies and Alex and Nita. Other than that, the film was beautifully shot, Alan Rickman has an eye for beautiful scenes, if nothing else the film was picturesque. The setting of Scotland in winter provided a beautiful backdrop, and the final scene with Sean Biggerstaff walking on the ice just was an amazing way to end the movie. Although the plot of the two women who go the funeral confused me, I couldn't quite figure out what they were doing there, besides adding length to the movie, the rest of the movie did mesh together very well. If you're looking for an artistically beautiful film, this is for you.
... View MoreAs an actor Alan Rickman is able to pick a good script when he sees one , but as a director he fails with THE WINTER GUEST . This is a totally tedious film with no plot and consists entirely of actors standing around bedrooms or in streets or on windswept shores or sitting on buses talking about things of absolutely no importance to me . Yes the scenary is beautiful but so`s the view outside my window and who wants to spend two hours looking out their window ?
... View MoreThe Winter Guest is a beautiful film, which looks at the rejuvenation of life after a death and the continuation of love and life in society. The setting is unusual but hauntingly beautiful (Scotland in winter) and the employment of some of the best acting talents of today all help to make a movie which causes a viewer to consider life and death, a reflective film beautifully done.
... View MoreNothing really happens, and we don't know a lot more at the end than we did at the beginning. This is not a story, it's a bit of poetry. The actors are outstanding, the setting is mesmerizing and the direction is delightfully spare. Watch this when you are in the mood for something soft, if just a bit bristly -- like Emma's hair.
