Title: Self-indulgent and mysoginist
Review: Bottom line: Phillip Roth, the author of the novella on which this film is based, hates women and is really angry about growing old, and it shows. This film completely fetishizes beauty and fetishizes women. In Roth's story, Kepesh (Kingsley) gets his "revenge" for growing old by castrating the girl: she has to lose a breast. The film is lush, certainly; Kingsley is studly and Cruz is beautiful and pliant like a Barbie doll, but this film convinces me of nothing--absolutely nothing--other than the fact that an old man's attempt to remain virile is dependent upon the disfigurement of the woman. I can't believe that they made this story into a film; oh, wait: yes, I can. It's Hollywood.
