The film struggles a little towards the end but the scene of Katie (Jodie Foster) lying in the hammock looking wistfully out to sea lingers on the retina and mind when I close my eyes.

It's quite a sad film, Katie's capriciousness would never allow her to settle down with a suitable man and that meant only one thing ultimately for her; heartbreak. Just like in life; the dynamic component needs a stable support or it spins itself apart and self-destructs.” read more
