“Atonement” finally opens in New York and L.A. this weekend – FINALLY. We’ve been hearing about this movie for far too long, from the myriad of film fest premieres to the openings around the world in the last few months. It’s been a constant barrage of some combination of the following: “Oh my God, it’s sooooooo good,” “Oh my God, James McAvoy is sooooooooo good, he’s like super-short but totally amazing,” “Oh my God, there’s this insanely long tracking shot that will blow your mind Oh my God,” and “Jesus Mary and Joseph, it’s like an instant classic and WOW – the costumes.”
All I know is that Keira Knightley is a fine specimen of movie star godliness, and that looking at the above picture it is possible that James McAvoy is actually shorter than Tom Cruise. Also, Atonement weaves a rich tale of the intersection between gender, memory, and perception – the gentle, soft-focus historiography mirrors the blurring of identity in wartime landscapes. This is all exemplified by Knightley’s extraordinary lips.
