But by the time his own pathology comes to the foreground, his actions are less tragic than weird and mystifying. Redmayne is something of a cipher in the film, which is fine when Tony functions as the spectator and interpreter of parental melodrama.

Moore presents a series of poses, phrases and disjointed emotions. Her relations with Tony range from neglectful to needy to downright monstrous.īut instead of a character, Ms. She is, we infer, both victim and provocateur in her marriage, suffering from Brooks’s coldness even as she goes out of her way to inflame his contempt.

This is especially true of Barbara, whose volatile personality is at the heart of the story. While it’s likely that the diction and phrasing of the dialogue approximates the idioms of rich expatriates during the decades in question, the characters still seem vague, stilted and unreal. Rodman’s script, is written and delivered with an arch, brittle self-consciousness that becomes oppressive over time. Greeting a literary scholar who has come for lunch, she asks: “Was Proust truly a homosexual? Qu’est-ce que tu penses?” For her part, Barbara is impulsive and also somewhat pretentious, striving to jam herself into social niches where she won’t comfortably fit. Brooks Baekeland, heir to a plastics fortune (his grandfather invented Bakelite), is frustrated by his own lack of ambition and less than kind to his wife, Barbara. Rodman, “Savage Grace” follows the true, appalling story of Tony and his parents, played by Stephen Dillane and Julianne Moore. Narrated by Tony Baekeland (played in young adulthood by Eddie Redmayne), it begins in the post-World War II Manhattan of late-night dinners at the Stork Club and moves on to Paris in the ’50s and then to Spain (Cadaqués and Majorca, to be precise) in the late 1960s and London after that. **Chris Logue was arrested in 2005 for fraud, since he presented himself as a doctor and claimed he could cure cancer of some sort, prostate probably.“Savage Grace,” Tom Kalin’s long-awaited second feature (after “Swoon”), swoons through a number of lovely, storied places on its way to a sad and sordid end. *In the first edition the title is carved up at the cover of the album. For the record, I must mention that the band from Los Angeles started it’s career going by the name Marquis De Sade, which seems to be fitting with the style of the front cover of “After The Fall From Grace”. The first side of the record with the 3 speed dynamites (“We Came, We Saw, We Conquered”, “After the Fall from Grace”, “Trial by Fire”) seems to be more demanding and containing the most known songs, which stand out, while the second side without being of less quality continues after the intro Palestinia playing in high speed (“Age Of Innocence”, “Destination Unknown”), however in more power forms, (“Flesh And Blood”) with “Tales of Mystery” even reminding us of Queensryche.

Melodic, without staying behind in terms of power, with the “cultmeter” reaching red every time any of the hymns (cause that’s what the album is full of) is played. When was the last time, however that you listened to one of “We Came, We Saw, We Conquered”, “Age Of Innocence”, or the title song, or when was the last time one of those was played at a metal bar? More epic (closer to heavy/power) than Agent Steel (they were sharing the guitarist Mark Marshall), with riffs full of speed, crazy solos and refrain (from the amazing Chris “more falsetto you die” Logue) that sticks within your mind. Everyone remembers the cop that had tied up the naked woman or Gene Hoglan (Dark Angel, Death) as an executor. Savage Grace have remained in the subconscious of metalheads more due to their album covers –which were really provocative considering the time they were released and the provocation seemed to be (and was) full of meaning, rather than their music.
