Fragile starring Sheree Wilson
robertaroberts6829 December 2007
a super short about what's going on in the mind of a 40 something woman (Sheree Wilson "Walker, Texas Ranger")going through a mid life crisis. She is tough and yet Fragile. The directing is like a "Lynchian" "Jungian" poetry and yet soft and romantic.

I really felt for this woman and her issue. I wish I could explain what's going in my head sometimes.

May a Feature adaptation?

I wished Frederic Galfo had shot in 35mm film and not in digital?

The film is about a fragmented married woman caught in a riptide caused by her midlife crisis. She meets a very seductive photographer whose awkward offer may help her to find some kind of self-liberation. Her husband/cop, too busy trying to catch a serial rapist, doesn't realize his wife is drifting away.But has the photographer ever existed?

Fragile ---the realist view of the inner turmoil of a pre-menopause woman
linacerrone14 May 2013
I liked this film because it shows the state of mind of some women going thru a lot of inner turmoil as approaching their menopause. Not a lot of films dare to approach the subject that speaks to all women-regardless of their culture, background, race and education. We all have to go through it, unlike men who have a real hard time to grasp our inner chaos. Good Mise-en-scene and realistic dialog. it is very surprising that this film was written by a male director and still be accurate...how did he know? He achieved to suggest in a realistic way to show with subtleties what the actress is going through mentally and how she approached this new relationship with her body , a new connection.
