5.0 out of 5 stars How Often 20/20 Clarity About Our Early Lives Comes So Often So Late
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2021

Any other Baby Boomers starting to notice as retrospective illusions and deceptions start to miraculously crumble away and reveal themselves for what they really were rather than the truths we perceived them to be at the time? They say the closer you share your everyday life with someone, the less you really know them and the harder it is to see the motives behind what they do. This is an extreme example of such a situation, when a woman, Kate, after 45 years and so much history with Geoff, her husband, (during the week when they are planning their 45 year wedding celebration), starts to realize that her entire adult life has been a lie, through no fault of her own - that, unbeknownst to her since they first met, she has been what is virtually a stand-in for Katya, the love her husband lost long ago and apparently couldn't face living without. After losing her, he begins to seek out and finds someone whose looks, personality and name are uncannily similar to her, and begins to pattern the life with her that he would have had with Katya had she survived. A starry-eyed young Kate goes about building a life with Geoff, never suspecting the life she is building is the one he wanted with Katya. It seems to me and others I know that the wiser (older) you get, the true motives of some people from your past that you unequivocally took for granted as sincere at the time seem to strangely reveal themselves with unexpected insight. You wonder how you could allow yourself to be duped for so long, but it is helpful to remember that pathological liars sometimes show up in the most unexpected situations. How convenient it would be to have that clarity when you are very young and need it. The day Kate discovers the whole hurtful, malicious truth about the man she thought was her partner for 45 years is heartbreaking, as she is sitting on the bench in the shopping area, her realization of the truth, and her subsequent spiral into disbelief and despair is palpable. The last scene in the film just turns you inside out, as you see her at their anniversary party after she has just viewed a collection of photos of their life together put together as a gift by her friend and has heard Geoff's full-of-lies speech he wrote as a tribute to their marriage, trying to put on a brave face as she dances the first dance with Geoff, the same one they danced to at their wedding - "Smoke Gets in your Eyes" - and she hears the words to the song for the first time as to what they really mean to Geoff - that the words were being sung to Katya the first time, and now 45 years later she is still being deceived and they are still being dedicated to her. He tries to hold Kate's hand up after the dance as a show of "togetherness", but at this moment the enormity of the betrayal that has just become evident reaches a point at which she can no longer hide it and you witness her literally implode, as her face begins to distort into tears and her entire constitution begins to shake, crumble and dissolve. Everyone in this film gives outstanding performances but this is probably the best I've ever seen from Charlotte Rampling. Her vulnerability, confusion at what is starting to transpire in her marriage, and eventual inner breakdown are all masterfully woven together. She completely inhabits the character of Kate and makes you care about her. This is a touching and thought-provoking film that will maybe give someone pause and make them consider under what truths or deceptions they might be operating.

The last scene, is the perfect expression on the human condition. We form identity, and it always betrays us. We need it, but we cam't have it. Poor little Kate. She isn't as full and perfect as Katia.

A dream late-in-life matching.

I recently decided to re-watch the very edgy “Night Porter,” which I first saw at my favorite one-and-only art theater in Atlanta in 1974. To say the least, it is not your traditional movie about the Holocaust. Charlotte Rampling, who is my coeval, played the lead role. She managed to survive the concentration camp by engaging in an S-M relationship with one of her Nazi captives, including some very erotic dancing. Fifteen years after the war, they meet again in Vienna. Will she resume that relationship again? More than “edgy.”

And there is Tom Courteney, who I first saw at one of the Pittsburgh art theaters in 1963, playing the lead role in “The Loneliness of a Long Distance Runner,” a formative movie about refusing to play the “game.” He also brilliantly played Pasha Antipov, the very naïve idealist who could not conceive of his girlfriend, Lara, played by Julie Christie, having an affair: “her age speaks for itself,” he assures Komarovsky, played by Rod Steiger. Pasha, disillusioned when the truth became apparent, would become the ruthless Red Army commander, Strelnikov, burning the villages of the “Whites.” Another formative movie.

The director, Andrew Haigh, brings these two wonderful performers together, for a now very relevant drama about later-in-life relationships. The movie was released in 2015. Of course, there is no mention of their roles in the above movies. Rampling is still appealing, though that lithe body is covered a bit. It really does shift more to the mind, and the understanding of the other that experience now provides. As Leonard Cohen said: “I never met a woman until I was 60; before I had only seen some miracles before me.”

Their 45th wedding anniversary approaches. A gathering of friends. Who to invite, who to exclude. Their reminiscences released a flood of my own. Yes, in my lifetime, as well as their's, sometimes one had to pretend to be “next of kin,” in order to stay in people’s houses, if a couple was not married. I realize that I will never read Kierkegaard, and so Rampling’s chide at Courteney: “you started five books on him and never finished one.” The “On the Road” of Jack Kerouac was, well, for unknown reasons, a touchstone. Though the movie “Carnal Knowledge” was never mentioned, the concept of Jack Nicholson’s slide show, the terrifying look at the endless succession of women was evoked, before the exhaustion settled the matter.

For obvious reasons, I increasingly relate to the movies featuring late-in-life relationships. Just one more time for the Gipper, when smoke gets in your eyes, and needs to be cleared on the balcony, overlooking the magnolia tree. 5-stars for this movie, fittingly filmed in Norfolk, England.

This is a film about a marriage that was in its 45th year, when the husband gets a letter creating a crisis. The director and actors were so skillful that, despite realizing there is a problem, determining whether it was a serious hiccup or a fatal blow to the marriage is up to the viewer. Different reviews have defined the problem and apportioned fault a wide variety of ways. The whole point of the film is watching the situation unfold through brilliant performances, especially Charlotte Rampling's. She is the wife making one shocking discovery after another, particularly given some of the choices she has made, giving up something of great personal importance for the marriage. Tom Courtenay is also top notch as the husband who seems completely overcome by a situation, but then realizes he's created another crisis that might even be worse. The outcome of all this raises a number of questions rather than providing answers.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Un-thought Known
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 5, 2016

This is, without a doubt, one of the best films I have ever seen. The acting is superb, the script heart wrenching, the two together making for a marital drama of epic proportions, yet conducted privately, with stillness, internal suffering and external enquiry and incredulity.
It poses the question: what does one do when the foundation on which we have built our internal life, in relation to our partner and our marriage,begins to reveal itself to have been other than we had believed? How do we react if we discover that, but for the death of another, not only would we never have been married to our partner, but that he still holds true to the notion that the dead person (who cannot disappoint), is still the ideal? And what do we then do, when, at out anniversary celebration, surrounded by the friends who have supported us and our marriage, throughout the years, the re-playing of the song we danced to at our wedding, now reveals resonances that we had never realized, in relation to the dead person and our partners longing?
A sensitively acted film by both protagonists, which poses questions about marriage to a person who has lost a loved one before having met us, and whether we live forever under the shadow of the dead person who can never disappoint, unknowingly believing that what we have is something good, until resonances from the past make us doubt what we ever really meant.
This film gets to the heart of our most basic insecurities in relation to a partner who has been bereaved of a loved one before they met us.
