“When I go to the movie (having an 8 weeks unlimited movies pass) I usually have to plan. I canu0026#39;t be out too late, because I have to get home by bus. But I still would want to watch two movies, if possible. Yesterday the possibility was there in taking u0026quot;Dreaming of Joseph Leesu0026quot; as a second movie. I had to run from one screen to the other to be in time, but I managed. entering the screen that played u0026quot;Dreaming of Joseph Leesu0026quot;, I had the whole cinema to myself. Then having watched the movie I wondered why that was and why the average is only 4.9 for this movie. I am almost giving double figures for this movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSome reasons maybe: – It is about very common people. – It is not sensational at all. No real violence, no real sex, etc. – Too much complex psychology. – It is too British. – The story is too simple.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story is about a woman who by her own acting runs into the dilemma of the feeling of responsibility for Harry (with whom she lives together for a while), a psychopathically jealous partner, even jealous of a book that Eva is reading, and her love from childhood Joseph Lees, who in an explosion loses a leg. Samantha Morton (never heard of her before) plays Eva brilliantly and Lee Ross does a very good job on the complex character of Harry, the farmer. Then there is Janie, sister of Eva and only wanting her sister to be happy. And Eva doesnu0026#39;t really see until the end, but she is happiest with Joseph Lees, who enters her life again at a wedding.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe end of the movie: Get your handkerchiefs out for a brilliant climax….u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003enMy feelings went from u0026quot;I donu0026#39;t know what kind of a movie this is going to be, probably not a very good oneu0026quot; (4.9 average) to u0026quot;What a beautiful movieu0026quot;. It is a shame that so few people seem to appreciate this movie….And the cinema streamed empty…I was going home.”
