A ” Must See Again” Film
Had I taken to heart what the movie reviewer in my local paper had written about this film (and his 2.5 star rating) — I would not have gone. Fortunately, I checked out IMDb and read that someone had compared it to Jean Cocteau’s avant-garde “La Belle et La Bete.” Enough said. That commendation, and armed, as I was, with the knowledge that Nicole Kidman has done some exceptional films in recent years (particularly “The Hours,” “The Others,” and one of my all-time favourite psychological thrillers, “Dead Calm”), I was off to the local art film theatre to join the sparse (perhaps a dozen?) audience of viewers.

In short, this film has set the bar extremely high re: all other films I will see in 2007. One finds not only the influence of Cocteau in the film, but also of Kubrick, Hitchcock, and even of Maya Deren. (ie: there is a stunning image of Kidman/Arbus crawling out of the sea — a few moments of sheer poetry — that are reminiscent of Deren’s “At Land.”) (Also, perhaps a little Jane Campion with the underwater shots near the end.)

This is a decidedly painterly film, with everything from Arbus’s dresses to the evocative interiors of Lionel’s museum/carnival-like apartment and the film’s textures worthy of commentary in both film classes and post-film chats with friends. Contrasts are integral to this film. The paint-peeled walls provide an interesting contrast with the elegant satins and aristocratic dining accoutrement (tea pot, cup), and parallel Lionel’s declining health. Arbus’s smooth skin vs. Lionel’s fur. The staged symmetry of Arbus’s husband’s white-washed, commercial photography vs. the brilliant chaos in Lionel’s apartment. Arbus’s wealthy, “proper” parents vs. Lionel’s menagerie of “freaks”. Many of the shots are framed in interesting, geometrical or architectural ways, or echo camera apertures. The use of the colour blue in some scenes is breathtaking.

Great line — (not verbatim): Allan Arbus — “I’m a normal guy, now I have a hole in my ceiling and freaks coming through it.”

I also felt the chemistry between the principal characters (a rarity), and believe the pacing greatly attributed to the overall success of the film. The framing — with the nudist camp — underscored the change/growth in the protagonist.

As my 20 year old daughter said upon leaving the theatre — “This is the kind of film that really makes you want to live the life you were meant to.” Here here. “Fur” gets five big, bold, blazing stars. It is, quite simply, brilliant. Please, tell your friends.
