Title: What a Disappointment
Product review: Finally succumbing to friend's urging, I rented "Claire of the Moon"....... what a disappointing waste of time that was! The dialogue made me cringe, the acting was alternately wooden or over-the-top, and the whole production in general was stereo-type-laden and preachy. Even the sexy scenes failed to excite, being over-choreographed and unrealistic. I do understand the need for intelligent, sexy lesbian films, but director Nicole Conn, in all her earnest political-correctness, totally missed the mark. She could take lessons from the great director Donna Deitch, whose beautiful "Desert Hearts" remains the standard for lesbian-identified films...simple, sweet, and tender, with wonderfully understated acting and delicious love scenes.
