(No Title)
Closer was excellent. The kind of movie that makes you want to take up cigar smoking, so you could leave the theater and stand outside smoking a cigar. Definitely not for the faint of heart emotionally.
As promised, explicit scenes were definitely cut from the movie, yielding an extremely tasteful movie (at least in terms of visual exposure of Natalie Portman), considering it centered around her as a stripper. She has a full career ahead of her, and I’m glad they saved it by cutting any gratuitous scenes.
If you can’t handle infidelity and personal tragedy, don’t see this film. If you are looking for Portman nudity, don’t see this film. If you’re looking for a good movie, go see this. Don’t rent it unless you have to. It needs the big screen.
