NEVER NOT!

This film explores, then examines, the nature and presence of love but does not attempt to explain it. That is the hallmark of its success.

From the opening sequence through the rolling credits, we are invited to believe that although gender and jealousy may present obstacles to true love, they will never defeat it. It is an invitation we cannot refuse.

The plot for all its reliance on coincidence and remote possibility, serves to remind us that true love may be easy to recognize but difficult to find, in a world of increasing cynicism and heartbreak.

Moreover, it encourages us to accept that the experience of true love defies logic and analysis but rather should be savored, for love, like life, is transient - in the face of time and changing circumstance.

Most memorable line: `I love you, my adorable hedgehog. Never not.'

Love like ambiguous experience

Love like ambiguous experience. A new story about another Dorian Gray and the price of passion. Betrayal and dangerous game, traps and forms of propriety, soft lies and subtle temptations.

A story about the value of truth and the burden of gestures. A beautiful film about human relationship nuances. The gay love is only excuse for deep exploration of feelings and their metamorphosis. Tim Cornish must be a victim for his perfect life, his beauty and success. In his passion for Ivo is not the mark of special sin but the shadow of old Greek anenke. Isabela is a lure but, in same time, the best instrument to understand his existence's sense. And Ivo, the fascinating Ivo, subtle spider of beginning, final victim of Tim's deep guilt, he is Gray's portrait. Tim must be himself and the price is never huge.

A beautiful movie about the life's nooks.

A first rate thriller with some startling and complex emotional undertones.

Hitchcock is smiling down from... or up from... This BBC produced thriller is a worthy homage to the master. A little gem that is as complex and perverse as anything Chabrol or Truffaut accomplished in this genre. Director Shankland engenders superb work from all involved. The cast is first rate as is the atmospheric cinematography of Paul Sarossi, with special kudos going to composer Christopher Dedrick for a magnificent and seamlessly integrated score whose source material are the rapturous melodies of Der Rosenkavalier. As with Hichcock, be prepared to be shamelessly manipulated by the plot structure and its twists. But go along with the filmmakers. You will not be disappointed by this daring and intricate piece of work. The pacing of this 120-minute film cannot be faulted and the last 30 minutes are a spectacular emotional tour de force. You might even find an unexpected tear in your eye by the end of the final, beautifully understated, tracking shot. Search this one out. It's worth it.

On an impulse

No Night Is Too Long casts young Lee Williams as one beautiful twink of a college student who gazes longingly on paleontology professor Marc Warren. One day on an impulse they passionately kiss in an elevator and the two are hooked on each other.

Not that he's interested in his field, but Williams is certainly interested in the professor. He reluctantly goes along on an Alaskan cruise where Warren is an instructor on finding fossils. When he leaves Williams alone in Juneau for two weeks the trouble begins.

After that the film is a story of betrayal, violent passions, and even murder. In fact for an impulsive act on Warren, Williams seems to have covered up pretty well.

Williams and Warren are an ideal pair of passionate lovers, the bisexual Williams however finds it impossible to not satisfy the heterosexual side of his nature. Mikela Mikael plays the woman who comes between Williams and Warren and she also has a secret or two to reveal.

No Night Is Too Long starts as tender gay love story which goes into all kinds of dark directions. It's a worthy addition from across the pond to the gay cinema.

Real surprise package

This truly terrific thriller scores in all departments. First and foremost is Lee William's stunningly intense and passionate central performance. He has completely internalized his complex character, bringing it to the screen with tremendous conviction in a display of faultless acting. Marc Warren, resembling a Malcolm Macdowell of younger days, doesn't quite have the same grasp on his character, which at times loses credibility, but fortunately not enough to spoil the film. Mikela Mikael captures a lovely vulnerability so necessary for the plot to work.

This is a thriller that works on all levels, which is an achievement few thrillers seem to attain. The plot twists are indeed unexpected and for the length of the movie the viewer is kept riveted to the unfolding story. The cinematography is of the highest level, especially with the amazing Alaskan seascapes but also the carefully shot interiors. Director Tom Shankland who put all this together is certainly a name to watch.

Having no expectations or preconceptions about the film, plus the fact of these actors being completely unknown (well, to me anyway), made this one great surprise package. There are not that many classy thrillers around; if that's your pleasure you won't want to miss this one.

The film makes reference to the opera "Der Rosenkavalier" in several ways. The film title comes from the closing pages of Act 2 where Baron Ochs sings the phrase « Ohne mich, ohne mich jeder Tag dir so bang ; Mit mir, mit mir keine Nacht dir so lang », which Tim, recalling his passionate times with Ivo, renders as "Without me, without me every day is a misery; With me, with me no night is too long.".

Dr. Ivo Steadman: So, where is he?
[Silence from Isabel, Ivo glances towards the kitchen]
Dr. Ivo Steadman: Oh...
[whispers]
Dr. Ivo Steadman: Where is he?
Kit Winwood: [Walking in from the kitchen] Where's who?
Isabel: [to Ivo] I thought you might have known?
Dr. Ivo Steadman: Well, if I knew I wouldn't be asking, would I?
Kit Winwood: Who are we talking about here?
Dr. Ivo Steadman: We're talking about Tim Cornish, a friend of mine from England. Well, he was a... a lover.
Kit Winwood: Ahh...
Dr. Ivo Steadman: He'd come with me on one of my lecture cruises, and we stopped off at this island, and we ended up having a fight. And, uh... well, I fell against a rock, I was out cold and...
[pause]
Dr. Ivo Steadman: He left me there. Dead, as far as he knows.
Kit Winwood: Jesus! How long were you there?
Dr. Ivo Steadman: Two or three days. One of my colleagues got suspicious. So, the next cruise stopped off and uh... here I am.
Kit Winwood: Oh my God... this guy really wanted to kill you?
Dr. Ivo Steadman: He wanted me out of the way because he's got another lover.
Kit Winwood: Is that who he's with now?
Dr. Ivo Steadman: [Looks at Isabel] ... I don't know.
Kit Winwood: [Getting suspicious] What's going on here?
Dr. Ivo Steadman: But what I do know is that when he tried to kill me, he had every intention of resuming the affair.
Kit Winwood: [Angry] So who the hell is the affair with?

Dr. Ivo Steadman: Open this fucking door! How could you do this to me?
Isabel: You shouldn't have asked me!
Dr. Ivo Steadman: I thought I could trust you?
Isabel: I didn't want anything to do with it! Asking me to spy on him while you were away, making sure that he didn't misbehave, it was... it was ridiculous!
Dr. Ivo Steadman: [Near tears] But you knew! You knew what I felt for him!
[Slams on the door]
Dr. Ivo Steadman: You knew what I felt for him!
