Reel 56b: Only Connect, Pt.2
from Words and Movies Hosted by Sean Gallagher & Claude Call
In the second half of today's episode, we'll be reviewing The Edge of Heaven from 2007, directed by Fatih Akim. It's a film entirely about missed connections that will frustrate you, but eventually you manage to settle in and accept what happens (or doesn't). COMING ATTRACTIONS: Put on your rented tuxedo, because we're going to a couple of weddings. First, from 2001, it's Monsoon Wedding, an Indian comedy-drama directed by Mira Nair. Although it takes place in India, you'll recognize most of the drama that happens when extended families find themselves in one place. From there we're off to Denmark and 2007's After the Wedding, a 2006 Danish-Swedish drama directed by Susanne Bier. It's a complex story about people with complex motivations, and the people affected by them.
