Neil Jordan is one of those writer-directors who don't quite grasp the
first rule of literary adaptations: what reads well on the page doesn't
always translate well to celluloid. I haven't read Graham Greene's The
End of the Affair on which this movie of...more |

"The End Of The Affair" is a dark and moody romantic period piece, that Neil
Jordan exquisitely writes and directs. Although it's slow and sometimes
confusing to follow, it still manages to give audiences a moving experience.
Based on Graham Greene's...more |

What a disappointment! Writer/director Neil Jordan, who gave us
The Crying Game, Mona Lisa, and In Company of Wolves, totally misses
the mark with this soggy romantic tale,...more |

by Jon Popick |
Neil Jordan’s (In Dreams) latest is a lean adaptation of Graham Greene’s
novel of the same name. There isn’t much to the story (some even say
that the book would have been better as a novella) and there aren’t many
characters. But thanks to first-rate...more |

There's an old British saying, "in for a penny, in for a pound,"
which applies perfectly to "The End of the Affair," a demanding,
thought-provoking film adapted from Graham Greene's novel of the same
name. It's a movie built around a theme many will...more |

_The_End_of_the_Affair_. However, that line could not be a more
inaccurate description of this film, for it is a beautifully passionate
and extremely romantic screen treatment of...more |

The problem with writer/director Neil Jordan's remake of THE END OF THE
AFFAIR, based on the Graham Greene novel, is that this could easily be
said about the movie itself. Although Jordan attempts an old fashioned
cinematic weeper, what he gets instead...more |
