FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

bgoo-19890 This is really a movie with Hitchcock -esque twists! It held my attention from the start. Lee Williams was amazing in the depth he gave this character. I actually could feel the emotions and conflict his character Tim Cornish experienced. The final revelation that his own narcissism is the catylist for all the events in the movie. Right to the end you still see his self absorbed character fall back on his looks to save him as he always has.

bkoganbing No Night Is Too Long casts young Lee Williams as one beautiful twink of a college student who gazes longingly on paleontology professor Marc Warren. One day on an impulse they passionately kiss in an elevator and the two are hooked on each other. Not that he's interested in his field, but Williams is certainly interested in the professor. He reluctantly goes along on an Alaskan cruise where Warren is an instructor on finding fossils. When he leaves Williams alone in Juneau for two weeks the trouble begins.After that the film is a story of betrayal, violent passions, and even murder. In fact for an impulsive act on Warren, Williams seems to have covered up pretty well.Williams and Warren are an ideal pair of passionate lovers, the bisexual Williams however finds it impossible to not satisfy the heterosexual side of his nature. Mikela Mikael plays the woman who comes between Williams and Warren and she also has a secret or two to reveal.No Night Is Too Long starts as tender gay love story which goes into all kinds of dark directions. It's a worthy addition from across the pond to the gay cinema.

claudefurones Hitchcock is smiling down from... or up from... This BBC produced thriller is a worthy homage to the master. A little gem that is as complex and perverse as anything Chabrol or Truffaut accomplished in this genre. Director Shankland engenders superb work from all involved. The cast is first rate as is the atmospheric cinematography of Paul Sarossi, with special kudos going to composer Christopher Dedrick for a magnificent and seamlessly integrated score whose source material are the rapturous melodies of Der Rosenkavalier. As with Hichcock, be prepared to be shamelessly manipulated by the plot structure and its twists. But go along with the filmmakers. You will not be disappointed by this daring and intricate piece of work. The pacing of this 120-minute film cannot be faulted and the last 30 minutes are a spectacular emotional tour de force. You might even find an unexpected tear in your eye by the end of the final, beautifully understated, tracking shot. Search this one out. It's worth it.

zu20 POSSIBLE PLOT SPOILERS? I very nearly didn't watch, this but in the end I'm very glad I did, I was enthralled from the beginning to the end. Tim Cornish who was surprisingly well acted by Lee Williams - who I'd last seen in a fairly awful Beatles film is a fairly shallow but gorgeous, (well Williams is a bit too pretty for my likes but anyway!) university student who becomes attracted to a male university professor called Ivo Steadman. This attraction though initially obsessive in time reveals itself to be shallow because it evaporates when Ivo admits he loves Tim because the sense of mystery is gone. This leads Tim into the arms of a woman called Isabel and to the decision that he must get out of his relationship with Ivo in any way he can even if that means killing him. The acting especially from Marc Warren who is sublime as Ivo is what really made this special and all in all this is a good adaptation of a wonderful Barbara Vine book.In fact i can't speak too highly of Warren the sarcasm and the melancholy but also the great hopeless affection for Tim the way he loves him despite all he has done are all transported perfectly from the book to this teleplay. i guess that was down to a really good bit of casting. All in all i can't say anything more than i thought it was very good well adapted - (yes I read the book - in 2 days i might add) - that's how good it was! and well acted.
