Barnes & Noble Eschewing the predictable formulas from which most screen romances are concocted, Waking the Dead presents a complex, sophisticated, and highly intriguing love story. In his adaptation of Scott Spencers critically acclaimed novel, writer-director Keith Gordon (The Chocolate War) maintains the books multilayered narrative structure and fractured chronology, challenging the viewer to keep up with dizzying changes in time and place. Billy Crudup portrays an erstwhile politician and lifelong adherent to the status quo, determined to work within the system but madly in love with a beautiful, passionate activist played by Jennifer Connelly, whos fervently committed to effecting change from without. Her apparent death in a car bombing sends the stiff-backed politico into a tailspin. But is she really dead? Has she returned to rescue him from his soul-numbing ways? Emotionally demanding and quietly compelling, Waking the Dead will stimulate viewers with its unique perspective. Ed Hulse Interested in the song lyrics? - Check out themostlyrics.com!
