Lantana (2001)
Country: AUS/GER
Technical: col/scope 121m
Director: Ray Lawrence
Cast: Anthony LaPaglia, Geoffrey Rush, Barbara Hershey, Kerry Armstrong, Rachael Blake
Synopsis:
A detective sergeant, psychiatrist and assorted other characters find their lives as entangled as the pervasive roots of the eponymous Sydney shrub.
Review:
Absorbing character drama with good performances and an intriguing conundrum at its heart. Some may find its coincidences work better on the stage for which it was originally designed than in the patent vastness of the Sydney landscape, but it is a potent exposé of the way in which deceit binds together/holds apart many of our lives.
