In this narrative drama, the camera plays a vital role which I believe is the eyes. Adam Burton plays Felix, a model photographer who takes pictures of a beautiful wannabe model Caroline Murphy. During Felix and Caroline's conversation about her marriage, Felix picks up on her true emotions due to his experience in capturing the essence of inner beauty through women and tells her she's unhappy with her fiancé James. This is a powerful point of the whole film and therefore I felt director Kris Smith used the camera as a very significant role that's more important than all the characters combined. Everyone is pretty much blind and naive however Felix and his prop can identify people's proper emotions which I felt was very creative and clever!
Throughout the film we are drawn to a tense build-up that causes the 'damage' of two ordinary beings that are getting married. I felt watching this that I was actually there not wanting Felix to destroy the 'special day' but I couldn't and to me that's so amazing to experience. This is not a film for people looking for action and adventure as quite the opposite happens here. It's a film about an antihero who has a moment of self-righteousness and decides to take action to what he feels is right, and is left suspended at the end.
Bookmarking the two lines "So Miss Murphy, what do you do for a living?" is pure genius and I couldn't agree more to the sheer amount of praise and respect this film keeps getting.
