coy adaptation of Victorian erotica, 7 January 2005
Author:
didi-5 from United Kingdom
One of the many anonymous 'erotic' novels of the Victorian age, 'Frank
and I' comes to the screen courtesy of Gérard Kikoïne, with Christopher
Pearson and Jennifer Inch essaying the main roles of master and
servant. It doesn't quite come off, mainly because of the appalling
acting of the androgynous Inch as Frank (or is it Frances?), with her
baby girl voice and plain-Jane face. It doesn't help either that the
main focus of the book (the submission-domination angle) is squished
into one scene which fails to be really convincing.
The trailer for the film manages to be better than the main feature
itself, and that's no mean feat. The Victorians knew how to write this
sort of thing, but it doesn't necessarily mean that 20th century
film-makers know how to portray it on the screen. 'Frank and I' manages
to be quite limp, miserably shot and woefully scripted. Not one I'd
particularly recommend.
