HOLY SMOKE (1999) - ♦♦

Directed by - Jane Campion

Written by - Anna Campion, Jane Campion

Starring - Kate Winslet, Harvey Keitel

"The worried family of an  Australian girl who experiences a spiritual awakening in India as part of a strange religious cult, hires a macho exit counsellor to reprogram her belief. In Holy Smoke, a complex concept is dealt too lightly and inconsistently. The screenplay is quite poor and makes even the inspired performances seem silly."

Drama, USA/Australia
