Synopsis

Eddie Israel is a moviemaker. He is beginning the shooting of "The mother of mirrors", starring Francis Burns and Sarah Jennings. "The mother of mirrors" is the story of the last night of a couple falling into decay. Eddie is very demanding with the actors, and the heavy atmosphere of the film acts upon the daily life of the protagonists.

Rating

This film is a quite an uncommercial one, with a disturbing plot and a confusing cinematography. The story itself is far from exciting though, but it has some good scenes, mostly because Madonna here gives an unusually convincing performance, rare from her in the drama genre. She plays the struggling actress well, who even has to endure a rape in the film-within-a-film.
5/10
