Watch Some Velvet Morning For Free

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Tell them to skip this flick altogether!The give away that this movie is a set-up for the viewer is throughout the entire story. Velvet is constantly saying she must leave to meet a friend. But she never leaves the house! Plus she has every reason to leave because her relationship and conversation with Fred is 'rocky' at best. Fred is a most unpleasant fellow! But she stays to continue the conversation that she is clearly disturbed by. Something is surely afoot!I had never heard of this flick and because Stanley Tucci is a name in the actor world I decided to watch. Not such a good idea. The story drags on and on and you keep wondering why doesn't she just leave? By movies end you are ready to smack yourself for sticking with it! It's a trick! Hint, Hint!

Watched this on the plane, could not get my eyes off it. Masterful theatrical performance , 2 people inside a townhouse somewhere in U.S. Big city. Plot reviewed by others. Camera action captures a plethora of emotions and takes you where the actors want you to go. You will love this if you like watching uncoiling emotions from interactions of both characters, if you don't mind the sexual setting (no nudity) but nevertheless it very sexually charged, and if you like small cast theatrical performances. The ending is indeed unexpected, but in a way may the best way to end this escalating very emotionally charged movie. Both actors make it very believable at every moment. Their dialog may leave you irritated at times, but it is very realistic.

Review: What a strange but we'll made movie which is based  around a conversation between 2 people, about there relationship. The only reason why I gave this movie a chance was because of Stanley Tucci, who usually makes good movies, and after seeing this film, I'm glad that I put it on my rental list. Right from the beginning I didn't have a clue were the movie was going or were it was going to end up. The twist near the end was brilliant and the chemistry between the two characters was believable and emotional in parts. It made me laugh how Stanley Tucci just wouldn't leave the girls house and how he kept picking at everything that was said. I'm sure that there are many couples that can relate to this situation which is why it makes it so realistic and I've got to take my hat off to the actors who done extremely well with such a small project. Anyway, i enjoyed this small budget movie which kept me extremely entertained throughout. Enjoyable!Round-Up: It's such a shame that small budget movies like this, get overlooked! Anyway, you might recognise Alice Eve from Star Trek Into Darkness and Men In Black 3 but she isn't a household name. She put in a great performance in her role and she held her own next to Stanley Tucci who has starred in many top movies. Tucci was great in a Devil Wears Prada and he's starred in many big budget movies like Transformers and the Hunger Games franchise. Together, they were brilliant in this film but because of its small distribution and terrible worldwide gross, it didn't get the recognition that it deserved.Budget: N/A Worldwide Gross: $6,000 (Terrible!)I recommend this movie to people who are into there deep dramas about a man who turns up unannounced, on his ex-lovers doorstep expecting to rekindle there relationship. 6/10

Trigger Warning(s): Rape sceneWith no knowledge of who Alice Eve is, what drew me to this was Stanley Tucci. The man who can be found in so many of your favorite films, almost always with a different personality in each one. But while I must admit his involvement was certainly a draw, perhaps the real big interest for me came from the fact there were solely two people in the cast. Leading to the question: Do these two actors keep your attention over the course of the movie?Characters & StoryFred (Stanley Tucci) is a man who has seemingly left it all. He has left his wife of 20+ years and decides to show up, unannounced, at the door of his former mistress Velvet (Alice Eve). Someone who he hasn't had contact with for 4 years, so naturally she is quite surprised to see him with bags in hand, and with her surprise comes his anger for he wants seemingly expected them to pick up from where they left off. Thing is, her feelings have faded with time, perhaps due to lack of patience, and definitely a bit of fear. Leading you to wonder if when all is said and done, will someone leave in a body bag or perhaps could things end peacefully as they might have before?PraiseThis film, all throughout, got an emotional response from me. Some Velvet Morning is the type of film which makes you yell at the screen and get frustrated to the point you want to jump into the movie and do something. This is all thanks to an enraging story and performances by both Tucci and Eve which surely get you into their characters quick. For their performances make this almost like seeing a 1st class Broadway play. They go back and forth and puts you on the edge of your seat as you fear the worse and hope for the best. Especially as you see both of their patience degrade to the point where pleasantries are thrown out the window. And truly, I am surprised this film wasn't nominated for any type of accolades.CriticismBut with that said, I should note as much as this film can be maddening in a good way it also can be in a bad way. For one, the film repeats itself over and over in a pattern which adds a bit more detail each time the argument restarts again. And not to fully spoil the movie, but the basic pattern is Fred getting angry, Velvet getting scared, Fred trying to explain why he is angry, Velvet trying to appease him, Fred calming down, and then repeat. However, while that way of storytelling did get a bit too repetitive for me, really it is the ending which pushed me over the edge for it doesn't at all release this tension you have been building up inside of you. Instead it makes your anger simmer and settle in your shoulder and back muscles giving you no relief what so ever.Overall: Worth SeeingThis film is so polarizing for me. As much as I want to label it "Worth Seeing" I want to say to "Skip It" with "TV Viewing" not really being a viable option. For I hate this film with a burning passion, yet I feel it is so rare for a film to maintain you being connected and engaged throughout the entire thing. But, at the same time, your engagement is based on rage and passion which is never appeased. So while I say this is worth watching for the story and performances, realize you will not get any satisfaction out of the ending, no matter how clever it maybe.
