Roman Polanski, a very controversial director(check out documentary Wanted And Desired) made this masterpiece back in 1992, and keep in mind that Mimi is his wife from 1989.
The older looks of the movie may put off some people but give it a chance. The acting is awesome, and Peter Coyote did an amazing job as everyone else, but still his role was the most demanding. This movie is about overpowering and all consuming passion, and its impact on people and their lives. Fiona and Nigel Dobson are traveling to India in hopes to mend their routine marriage. On this trip they will meet a strange couple that will take them on another kind of journey. Oscar will tell his story to Nigel, story of sex, passion, perversion and love that is overwhelming. Beautifully shot, and with lot of sex scenes that are not so crude and in your face like in todays movies this movie is a definite must see. The clash between famous British stiffness and the American casual anything goes vibe, among other contrasts in this movie is something that you can think about after the movie is over and see how it relates to your life… Enjoy.
