Good movie.
Here, Ralph Fiennes is a blind American diplomat. He opens a "bar" in Shanghai. It is the 1930s and the Russian aristocracy had lost its power. Natasha Richardson is a Russian countess who becomes Ralph's muse.
Lynn Redgrave plays a bitter bitch. She lives off of Natasha's hard work, and yet, she feels all superior, just because she doesn't whore it up. Everybody is very good in the movie, directed by James Ivory.
We got a tiny bit of content for our gay movie review. In one scene, everybody is ballroom dancing and we catch a quick glimpse of two girls getting quite intimate. We don't actually see a kiss but I think the scene was enough to strongly suggest girl-on-girl action. Nice.
