You are right, EWS IS crap with no redeaming values, and a sad ending to a lustrous career. We had discussed it here perhaps 100 times already, and it ain't getting no better. It is one of the popular target to stick your sword into, so to speak. It was pathetic on pretty much all fronts, with perhaps the most boring part being the "orgy" - can you imagine THAT!??? As for the ending, that sweet and jucey punch line... well, I can only guess what caused the master to slide to that level. No, I didn't find it offensive, just incredibly stupid, embarrassing and lacking any drive or punch. More like a fart.... embarrassing.The Piano is - or can be - enjoyable, I am sure you will not regret watching it. I love both actors and they both do well in that film.
Follow Ups:
no small feat, I assure you. The days where directors can just throw weirdness and oddety in your face, soley relying on MOOD, are over...the weirdness is no longer weird because it is no longer unique. YAWN I can't even remember finishing it. It was so Lady Chatterly's Lover without the charm cheekiness.If my expectations for it had been lower, I probably would not have been so disappointed...I guess many feel that way.
