Carnage : by Roman Polanski


Roman Polanski has been one my favourite directors because his body of work is truly versatile. 

Here he is with a black comedy - Carnage
The locale is utterly simplistic yet engaging.

When 2 grade-school boys get into a confrontation in the park that results in one boy hitting the other in the with a stick, their parents meet in a apartment to discuss the issue. 
The parents of the boy wielding the stick, Alan and Nancy Cowan (Waltz and Winslet), 
visit the home of Michael and Penelope Longstreet (Reilly and Foster), who are the parents of the boy who was struck badly.

How interesting!!?  It is an absolute genius of a film.

The couples are in the zone of mind bending wordplay! 
Civility to Verbal Volleys!
Funny , Intelligent , Witty , Repartee , Banter

Writing at its best!

Rating : 4.0/5.0
