The Shape of Things (2003)

Cast: Rachel Weisz (Evelyn Ann Thompson), Paul Rudd (Adam Sorenson), Gretchen Mol (Jenny), & Frederick Weller (Phillip)
For complete info, see IMDb's The Shape of Things page.

I saw The Shape of Things with the original Off-Broadway cast and loved it. When I heard they were making a movie out of it which was being done by the original cast, I was thrilled. I knew that with the original cast and Neil LaBute (the author and director) involved, they would do a good job with it.

Fortunately, I was right. I went to a movie theater without stadium seating for the first time in a long time, since The Shape of Things wasn't playing at any of the big theaters, but I had to see it now. I couldn't wait till it came out. I'm very happy that they did a great job taking the play to the big screen. I'm also happy that I'll be able to own a great play on DVD when I saw the same cast in the play live. That never happens.

I definitely recommend this movie (or the play) - they're both excellent!

Grade: A
