This is an excellent Aussie black comedy that features terrific performances from both Hugo Weaving and Russell Crowe. The story is very original, it is beautifully written and the themes that film expresses are well explored. Also don't want to forget Genevieve Picot, who is also great as a Weaving's bitchy and manipulative housekeeper who gets in-between both of them. The direction is well done, the humour was funny and the overall result is very satisfying and enjoyable. Overall this is another prefect Aussie film that is definitely worth watching.
A quiet movie, but I was got into it so much. Not too sentimental, but very sensitive and clever.
Esp. I love the convesations taken between Andy and Martin. What Andy said about 'lies' and 'trust' at the ending part was awsome...
Pleasure to see greate actores in this kind of fine indie film.
I caught this this on IFC and was throuroughly entertained. Hugo Weaving was a brilliant revelation, and Crowe is a wonderfully sturdy supportive actor. I love stories that search for truth, and this one tells it's story humurously and dramatically. Proof, tangible and solid means evrything to weaving's blind character. He doesn't trust anyone until he meets Andy who takes the cynical blind man as he is. But can their friendship hold up against the wiles of Genevieve Picot Weaving's housekeeper?
A good movie for acting and plot, and immencely fun to watch.
might be difficult to find but is definitely worth seeking out. a brilliant screenplay that doesn't fall into any clichés and is funny one moment, and touching the next. Russell Crowe and Hugo Weaving are both great and show us why they would become huge international stars. special mention must go to Geneviève Picot who's character might be the most interesting of the the three. without her, much of the film's humour and depth might have been lost. overall, a great film that defies the conventions of Hollywood.
Somewhere between the taglines of this film lies the truth..."Before love comes trust. Before trust comes proof"and the the cutting, blunt and upsetting"Photographs dont lie. People do".
A blind man named Martin, (Hugo Weaving) takes photographs of his surroundings and later asks people he feels he can trust to describe them to him. "Attempting to use visual reality as a basis for proof of truth when the visual has never been real to Martin..."
The writer/director (Moorhouse) has Andy (Russell Crowe) wisely say to Martin at the end of the film, "Everybody lies. . .but not all the time, thats the point. Your whole life is the truth. . .have some pity on the rest of us Martin." The audience, learns that perhaps uncertain trust in others is a concession one must make since the desired,perfect truth, will never be found.
Russell Crowe was great in it, Hugo Weaving was pretty good but the story of a blind man who had spent 40 years feeling sorry for himself just didn't do it for me
I don't know what it is about this movie... but I love it. I watch it all the time. Hugo is the man.
Quirky Australian film about a blind photographer who befriends Russel Crowe who gradually becomes more entwined in his life than he ahd anticipated as Hugo Weaving's obsessive and jealous female minder plots to snare the blind man. All about trust....
A bizarre but superb drama on the emotional games three people play, wittily and pereceptively captured by novice writer-director Jocelyn Moorhouse and acted with total conviction and sympathy.
A simple but beautiful Australian film about trust and betrayal... a great soundtrack by Not Drowning Waving and an understated before-he-was-famous pre-w*anker performance from Russell Crowe.
Amazing movie. Very well written. Great performances. Weaving is absolutely fantastic and proves his talent. Crowe is also withstandable for a change. So good.
ah hugo weaving is agent smith! i must see this one cos it has both agent smitha nd russell crowe! :)
It`s an excellent show but can be really boring if you can`t take the plodding plot pace. Warning! Nothing blows up and nobody dies. No bitching, backstabbing and Hollywood-ish dramas. Very true to life sort of show. Loved it.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Proof" !
