Head in the Clouds
Charlize Theron in bed with Penelope Cruz, I had to forgo my star trek morals and force myself to see such filth. Theron plays Gilda, a free spirit who uses men to her advantage, and is the main mama in this story of a trio of lovers set adrift by the looming war with the Germans. Stuart Townsend plays the male lead and I found him to be pretty good and since he is Theron’s real boyfriend their affection appears more real. Cruz seemed a littlie dippy at times without a clearly written character but she sure looked sultry with her sexy self.
This story is long and reminded me of the red violin, just went on and on and in the end I think it paid off. I never would have guessed the sad ending and it made the journey well worth it. I did care what happened to the main characters since I watched them for so long and Theron’s performance is really good.
I don’t think this is great or really full of depth, but it is a decent story that held my attention until the end.
