Two New Brilliant Talents: Peake and Reeves - Keeping Rosy
5 January 2019
This English import is a totally original script with an electric performance by Ms Peake. Steve Reeves (no relation to superman; I'm very sure he has heard that one before). does a masterful job of writing and directing. His suspense devices work very well; the elevator, the tapes, the tape worker, and others. All very well done. A wonderful script can take a film a long way. Had elements of Psycho and various other thrillers, but extremely original in almost every way. The story of a lifeless woman brought to life by a baby; if just for awhile, is really very creative. Whenever I am having a bad day, I will think of this film and what a really bad day is really like. The suspense is palatable. Not since Hitchcock have I seen an English director with such ability. An excellent production from start to finish and I am looking forward to more good work from England's finest director.
