The movie tells the story of Cliff (played by actor Andre Noble), a very sheltered, highly insecure and adventure-hungry teenager growing up in 1980 Toronto.
Based in part on a series of successful short stories by Bruce LaBruce, "Sugar" was a critical success for its stars. Tom Palmer (who, incidentally, directed the film), Todd Klinck as well as Jaie Laplante wrote this Canadian film. All in all, this film was very well made, aside from a few little weak points.A romantic comedy, Sugar, is a heartwarming story about a troubled teen who roams the streets of Toronto Canada. The costume design is very bland, consisting of a lot of suits, and basically that’s all, aside from a few nice little dresses on the women. The cinematography is well done in a lot of scenes, and might actually clinch a nomination, thus far. The score by Carter Buwell is very nice, but nothing too unique. It goes through time very well, often giving very good transitions as well. Not going into details, but his performance in the second half is just remarkable, and hopefully you will find great pleasure in his performance.Īlright, the technical aspects of the film are pretty good, nothing too amazing, besides one exception. If you watch this film, and aren’t impressed with his performance an hour into the film, don’t worry, his performance becomes dynamic a little into the second half of the film, where it is predominately him on the screen. Alright, first I have to say, he releases his best performance to date, in this film, without a doubt. A great performance, and certainly one of the best from Molina. In a comedic performance on first impression, it slowly becomes very rich in drama, beneath first glance. Very easy to excite, either in a good way, or in a bad way, and very eager to get rich quick. Alfred Molina plays Gere’s partner in crime, Dick Susskind.
A very impressive performance in the film, and even more so considering I thought she was going to be a third tier character in the film. She also demonstrates a variety of emotions throughout, all with the accent, pretty much flawlessly. She nails the accents she must use throughout. She plays the wife of Clifford Irving, and just wow. Now, the supporting actress that stole almost every scene she was in, Marcia Gay Harden. With excitement in some scenes, and disbelief in others, it is a well layered performance. One of two definite supporting actress performances in the film go to Hope Davis, as the quirky associate of the McGraw-Hill. She does a pretty good job in this role, that is borderline supporting. In this performance, you can see it, not at it’s maximum, but enough that makes you want to retch in disgust. Her role is filled with the narcissistic stereotype that wannabe actresses thing that they are better than everyone else. Julie Delpy plays the on and off girl of Gere, named Nina Van Pallandt, an actress/singer. Again, in another slightly bigger, but still a limited role, he entices the audience with his very powerful presence, but also tends to whimper away from a situation he cannot handle, like most men. Stanley Tucci plays the head of the company that Gere is trying to sell his faux auto-biography to.
In a limited role, he gives an X type performance, but with much less dialouge, and with the feel of Michael Gambon’s latest role, in The Good Shepherd. Eli Wallach, a underappricated as a talented actor can get, plays Noah Dietrich, an operative for the “eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes”. Onto the great ensemble cast of the film. Delightfully surprised by how well the script was made, considering this being only his second script ever written, and the other being a Vince Vaughn film. Keeping the viewer laughing, while on the edge of their seat. The screenplay, adapted by William Wheeler, while still historically accurate from my knowledge, is very funny. This was really the only flaw in this film, mind you, it is a big one. There is nothing too special about it in any way, shape or form. Lasse Hallstrom’s latest “Oscar Contender” bring what his previous films in this decade have yet to accomplish, a witty but yet serious, and well devised product (haven’t seen An Unfinished Life or Casanova).
