Description
Joe and Claire are enjoying a romantic picnic when they notice a hot air balloon in considerable distress. Together with a group of onlookers, Joe rushes to its aid. A sudden gust of wind places the rescuers in danger however, and, as it is sent skywards, a man is left dangling from the balloon before plunging to his death. While Joe is left physically unscathed, the damage to his psyche seems irreparable. Based on the novel by Ian McEwan.

I saw this on television; immediately realised I had to watch it again.
It's a highly unusual story and compelling and also disturbing.
You might not like it - but you will have to watch it from start to finish to decide. And Daniel Craig is a bonus!

oh dear,oh dear!!

some books make great films, some books make terrible films and this is one of them, mainly because the only thing which links the book and the film is the title, hardly any of the book was made into the film,only the basic idea, very dissapointing as the book is fantastic

  Obsession - Tainted Love
Review created: 31/03/08

An freakish and shocking accident in the countryside has profound consequences for many involved.

After watching Atonement (2007), I decided to finally view this earlier adaptation of another Tim McEwan novel. After a mesmerizing opening sequence, the film loses some momentum towards the middle. However the thriller element help maintain my interest right to the end - remember to watch the complete end credits!
This examination of differing forms of human love and obsession is aided by a very good cast. Rhys Ifans is especially good as the oddball who sees an affinity between himself and fellow rescuer Daniel Craig.
All in all, I wasn’t disappointed. This DVD has some interesting extras including the mechanics of filming the crucial opener and a comparison of the film and novel - it’s put me in mind to read this book in the near future.

Thanks for taking the time to read my review.

Having previously read the book which was compelling and also disturbing, the film did not disappoint. Samantha Morton and Daniel Craig were so excellent in these roles. Rhys Ifans playing a character so obsessed with Joe that this obsession seemed to eclipse the previous tragedy.
