The Killing of Two Lovers

... but lived in a real world, in reality, where unsupported collapse, distraction, deviation and despair far too often rule the roost. An outstanding and convincing performance by Claude Crawford, held high through incredible cinematography and sound that carries you into a fracture as visible, visceral and raw as any you'll come across.

A powerful story which is well executed from start to finish.

The movie beautifully shows the complexity of relationships. Whilst to the outside eye the fractures of a relationship might appear obvious, love can be a binding force that masks such fractures to those in the relationship.

The movie depicts the many forms of love which are evident in society; at one extreme there is love which borders obsessive and destructive behaviour, and at the other is love which is simply duty bound. The movie shows this with dark and brute force at times.

The setting of the story is perfectly fitting; a small remote town in a bland environment enhances the focus on the relationship at the centre of the movie. The setting is symbolic of the nature of the love that holds the main couple together. Harsh and obsessive at one end, and unfulfilling at the other.

In reality, true love lies somewhere in between.

The less you know about this film going in the more you will like it. This is a slower film with long shots, but that really helps showcase how good the acting is. I think this will be an indie classic and I can't wait to watch it again.

Commanding performance by the Lead Actor ! This Film had small budget but delivers powerful punch. Eery Soundtrack and Shooting sequences. Must see in Theatre if possible.

I really like the kind of movies that make you feel like one of the characters. The photography was spectacular, I was captivated by that directional effect of the camera with focus and out of focus in the same shot, I think it gave the entire film dimensionality. Excellent work and I cannot fail to mention how excellent the music is, from the first 5 minutes I was intrigued by what would happen.
