David Jenkins Little White Lies Extraordinary in a number of ways. Rated: 3/5 Jun 5, 2013 Full Review Jennifer Tate ViewLondon Tilda Swinton is fantastic in this one-woman performance in which she portrays over a dozen characters, but unfortunately, John Maybury's experimental and pretentious film fails to translate.

Audience Member Not a very interesting subject matter. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Good attention to detail on the robots that play the pygmies and an interesting interpretation of the origins of the phrase "in cognito", but not much else to recommend it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Very captivating film. The plot was not a common plot, which was refreshing. I was particularly impressed by Joseph Fiennes' character's attachment to the Pygmees.. But there were some part of the film, that had confused me a little. It had an original screenplay, with a wonderful cinematography and magnificent performances and direction. But the story did not flow so well. The beginning for example was without a previous development of the characters and the situation was confused and gave the impression of an action film. The character of Elena Van Den Ende(Kristin Scott Thomas) was also confusing, showing contradictory feelings. The music score was very beautiful and the attitudes of the white people with the pygmees were very impressive. But to sum it up,it was a good film, I really enjoyed it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member nice movie, because it always pop out the true meaning of humanity... Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I have to admit... I was a little afraid of watching this, it really isn`t my kind of movie, but overall I liked it! It`s really interesting and different than most of the other movies! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member it was a nice movie, specially the pygmies made the "Caucasian" joke LOL Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
