"Praise"
1998
Directed by John Curran
Two entirely incompatible souls are tied together in a
relationship bound by circumstance and growing codependency. Sex is the
major ritual for passive, uninspired and asthmatic Gordon and alcoholic,
raging nymphomaniac Cynthia; despite the fact that Gordon can barely
accomplish the task and Cynthia can't get enough. Their desperate world of
drugs, alcohol, physical afflictions and conflict is presented with a
surprising amount of humor in this graphic, refreshingly different feature.
Featuring Peter Fenton and Sacha Horler. Winner of Australian Film Critics
Circle Awards for Best Director, Actress, and Screenplay. 98
minutes. |
