Strange and eerie
24 March 2000
I quite liked this film. It certainly was different to what I had expected. but this proved to be a good thing. It is very slow building, but at the same time I found it really captivating. The plot unravels quite slowly, and in time what is unexplained to begin with soon becomes clearer. Its not so much the acting in this film that make it good, its more the cinematography and the feel and flavour the director gave to the film. There are some parts which after the film has ended still seem to be unexplained, or clearly don't make sense. Unfortunately they have paved the way for a sequel- although I think that would be a very bad idea. Not that much actually happens in The Astronauts Wife, but what it may lacks in story (being what is actually explained), it makes up for in atmosphere.
