The Right Temptation
ANOTHER MACROTIGER REVIEW : Rebecca De Mornay vehicle. Cop-film-noir films aren't really our bag. Music is sort of 1970s horror music and 1980s Michael Mann combo, until really bad funk enters during the handball game. Music completely falls about 30 minutes in to film. Acting is not bad. Rebecca De Mornay (40 or 41 here) still looks great seventeen years after Risky Business (1983). Dialogue and story are pretty bad. Camera : annoying camera jump cuts and white-outs and other camera conceits. Camera work is uneven . Some good scenes, very 1980s look. Some scenes don't work. Scenes of Rebecca De Mornay's character in bed with pet pig are a drag. Keiffer Sutherland fills the roll. Utah doesn't really look like NYC, but then again, its a low budget film. Too many close-ups.

Bedways
Encased in a drab and squalid apartment stripped of furniture somewhere in Berlin, two unknown actors Hans and Marie, under the guidance of Nina, an unconventional and aspiring director, strive to capture unadulterated feelings, raw passion and undiluted sex for an experimental film about love. For this reason, the project lacks a script and a title, and while the actors deliberately stay in the dark, during the following week, Nina for the sake of pure cinematic realism, will push everyone's boundaries in a low-budget exploration of intimate desires and suppressed emotions, as the fine line between drama and reality eventually begins to fray. In front of the camera's harsh truth, authenticity is hard to counterfeit, nevertheless, will Nina's film project ultimately reach completion?
