VHS Movie Reviews of Playing for Time
Movie Review: Excellent Movie about Man's Inhumanity to Man
Summary: 5 Stars
I read about this film in Vanessa Redgrave's fascinating biography (which I highly recommend). Her performance in this role is stunning, and as always with truly great art, the script, the directing, and the acting never get sentimental. This is a realistic look at the confusion, disorientation, and tough choices that take place when human beings find themselves in horrific situations outside of their control, yet despite these conditions, the film leaves us a glimmer of hope by showing that even in the worst times human beings can still retain their humanity.
It is a shame that this film is not on DVD. It should be watched, re-watched, and studied. The acting is brilliant, the script realistic and masterful, and the acting sublime.
