Reviews: 'Intoxicatingly beautiful' ' Entrancing' Product DescriptionOndine is the story of Syracuse, a simple fisherman who catches a beautiful and mysterious woman in his trawler nets. The woman seems to be dead, but then she comes alive before Syracuse's eyes, and he thinks he may be seeing things. However, with the help of his irrepressible daughter, Annie, he comes to believe that the fantastical might be possible and that the woman (Ondine) might be a myth come true. Ondine and Syracuse fall passionately in love, but just as we think the fairytale might go on forever, the real world intercedes.Colin Farrell shows his soulful side in Ondine, a lovely Irish drama from director Neil Jordan (The Crying Game, Breakfast on Pluto). Syracuse (Farrell), a down-on-his-luck fisherman called Circus by friends and foes alike due to his formerly boozy ways, pulls up his net one morning to find a beautiful, near-drowned woman in it. She calls herself Ondine (Polish actress Alicja Bachleda) and Syracuse's daughter Annie (charming newcomer Alison Barry) thinks she's a selkie (a seal that's taken human form and can grant wishes). Ondine is happy to feed Annie's fantasies, and Syracuse is pretty convinced himself--but things take a dark turn as Annie's illness and Ondine's past intrude on this sweet fantasy. Ondine has a different feel than typical Hollywood fare; events that in most movies would be hyped and emphasized (such as a plot-turning car crash) here pass with jolting swiftness. Instead, Ondine lingers on the interplay between a sad father and a yearning daughter, between a lonely man and a lost woman. The movie builds a rich and deeply felt web of relationships--when the story takes hold, you'll be all the more gripped as a result. Featuring a delightful comic turn by Stephen Rea (V for Vendetta) as a skeptical priest. --Bret FetzerTopReviewsProduct detailsIs Discontinued By Manufacturer : NoMPAA rating : PG-13 (Parents Strongly Cautioned)Product Dimensions : 0.55 x 5.38 x 7.53 inches; 2.72 ouncesItem model number : MGNO10312DVDMedia Format : Multiple Formats, AC-3, Closed-captioned, Color, Dolby, NTSC, Subtitled, WidescreenRun time : 1 hour and 44 minutesRelease date : September 21, 2010Actors : Colin Farrell, Alicja BachledaSubtitles: : SpanishStudio : Magnolia Home EntertainmentASIN : B003LL3FIYCountry of Origin : USANumber of discs : 1
