Synopsis:

No German review yet:
'Savage Grace', Tom Kalin's long-awaited second feature (after 'Swoon'), swoons through a number of lovely, storied places on its way to a sad and sordid end. Narrated by Tony Baekeland (played in young adulthood by Eddie Redmayne), it begins in the post-World War II Manhattan of late-night dinners at the Stork Club and moves on to Paris in the '50s and then to Spain (Cadaqus and Majorca, to be precise) in the late 1960s and London after that. Written by Howard A. Rodman, 'Savage Grace' follows the true, appalling story of Tony and his parents, played by Stephen Dillane and Julianne Moore. Brooks Baekeland, heir to a plastics fortune (his grandfather invented Bakelite), is frustrated by his own lack of ambition and less than kind to his wife, Barbara. For her part, Barbara is impulsive and also somewhat pretentious, striving to jam herself into social niches where she won't comfortably fit. Greeting a literary scholar who has come for lunch, she asks: 'Was Proust truly a homosexual? Qu'est-ce que tu penses? That line, like so many others in Mr. Rodman's script, is written and delivered with an arch, brittle self-consciousness that becomes oppressive over time. While it's likely that the diction and phrasing of the dialogue approximates the idioms of rich expatriates during the decades in question, the characters still seem vague, stilted and unreal.
