THE WAITING CITY

July 31st, 2010

THE WAITING CITY- 2009. Premise by Netflix. “Radha Mitchell and Joel Edgerton star as adoptive parents-to-be, en route from Australia to Calcutta to pick up their new baby, in this unconventional love story infused with the exotic charms of India from director Claire McCarthy. To foreigners who have never been on Indian soil, the city is at once intoxicating and overwhelming. But it also has the power to pull the couple’s already fragile marriage apart at the seams.” Reviewers were OK with this one but audience reaction was poor. TRDB.

6/4/11- I enjoyed this movie that was clearly as much about India as it was about the principal characters. TRDB. Netflix.
