In 2002 I was at the height of my movie watching experience in that I pretty much saw everything that was released. If you remember from my posts from that year, Far From Heaven was my favorite of the 92 movies I saw that year. All of the reviews I read remarked that it was Todd Haynes' tribute to the films of Douglas Sirk. Having never seen a film from Sirk, I added his most famous films to my watchlist. Unfortunately, it took me nearly 20 years to see one. After watching All that Heaven Allows, I certainly will seek out more of Sirk's films.
Rock Hudson is an absolute snack. This is a love story as beautiful as its cinematography. That window shot.... It's just jaw-dropping.
