Review of Ten

Ten (2002)
9/10
Very compelling
9 May 2009
You have to see this movie to realize how to create a compelling movie by filming conversations between people sitting in a car! The simplicity of the style underscores the complexity of the themes addressed in Ten. The story meanders through big philosophies of like – marriage, parenthood, faith, sex, love – with amazing ease and grace. It starts with an angry scene between a mother and her young son. The protagonist talks to several different people in her car, but interestingly no adult men. Towards the last scene, the son gets angrier and more aggressive and dismissive. The mother, through all the conversations, seems to reach a point of acceptance with her sense of loss. The dialog and faces used in the movie are captivating.
