DESCRIPTIONS

Product Description Today's most dazzling stars soar in this alluring tale of passion, intrigue and betrayal. Set against a romantic Parisian backdrop, the lives of four strangers - an innocent young woman with a dangerous secret Christina Ricci (Sleepy Hollow), a seductive cabaret dancer Cate Blanchett (Oscar-nominated for Elizabeth), a mysterious stranger Johnny Depp (Chocolat) and an unscrupulous operatic tenor John Turturro (Quiz Show) - collide on one fateful evening when secrecy is a matter of survival! Bonus Content: Theatrical Trailer Production Notes Cast and Filmmakers DVD-ROM Features Amazon.com Fans of the testudinate pace and art-house vibe of writer-director Sally Potter's other works (Orlando, The Tango Lesson) will likely enjoy The Man Who Cried. Fegele (Christina Ricci) is a Russian Jew separated from her father as a child. Raised as "Susie" by an English family, she makes her way to Paris, where although the city's multiculturalism is vibrant, the Nazis are already on the rise and the secret of her origin becomes increasingly dangerous. The cast of The Man Who Cried is excellent; Cate Blanchett, Johnny Depp, John Turturro, and Harry Dean Stanton all do fine jobs in what could have easily degenerated into an accentfest. Depp and Ricci do very well with minimal dialogue--both go through the entire movie almost without speaking. The film moves at a leisurely pace and is beautifully shot. Not a film to show to a roomful of action movie fans, but it's well suited to people who like their films a little more European in flavor. --Ali Davis
