Peter Jackson's Lesbian Fairy Tale
Peter Jackson's beautiful movie about a true story of two young lesbians who decide to plot a murder so that they may continue their romance.
The girls (Melanie Lynskey and Kate Winslet) live in a fantasy world that Jackson constructs out of people that seem like puppets and dolls, mud people who appreciate that these two can and do love each other.
The movie is tragic and lovely, and the final scene is unforgettable. Just when you think you know where it is going, it turns on you and shocks you with what these girls are willing to do.
Though Lynskey is the star, you can see why Kate Winslet has shone so brightly, only a teenager here the camera loves her and her passion reads clearly on the screen.
