movie review - Cosi

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 1998.01.04

Named after a play (Cosi Fan tutti), this mildly funny 'romantic comedy' from Autralia by the fellow who made Murial's Wedding. It's about an out-of-work actor who takes a job directing the play Cosi in an insane asylum. An interesting story and low 'guessability' make this pretty good.

Recommended.
