This was my favourite film viewed in 2001. It's lush, rich, sensual, and yes, slow. The Nat King Cole soundtrack scores the longing and pain that exists between two people who so deserve each other but are held back from committing adultery because they want to uphold the honour and dignity that they have been robbed of from their respective spouses.
I loved how their relationship was punctuated by slow, studied looks. A touch of the hand burns hotter than any sex one can have onscreen. I loved the costumes and the moodiness of the setting.
See it for something different.
