Dangerous Remedy (2012 TV Movie)
3/10
Disappointing
23 April 2017
This story is very important and should be told. Loudly and clearly.

Unfortunately this film stumbles over its own feet in a directorial 'artistic' rush that detracts greatly from the narrative thrust.

Clarity is lost when the viewer sees 'production' and not the story.

Quite often I was wondering why the director had put plants or beads or planks of wood (twice) in front of the action rather than being enthralled with the story.

Much of the dialogue is stilted towards shallow melodrama rather than simply (engagingly) moving the story forward.

The actors are all very (very!) good at their craft and its sad to see them have to work with a script and director that make them awkwardly overact.

Tell it simply Tell it true. This film fails to do so.

very good mystery

This is one of my favourite movies. It's filmed in gorgeous black and white in the gorgeous south of France. I like this film a lot because the twist at the end is so good and so well executed by the film makers, writers and cast. It's a B grade classic.
