THE SECRET LIFE OF WORDS




Drama

PRINCIPAL CAST MEMBERS
Sarah Polley: Hannah, a Yugoslavian factory worker
Tim Robbins: Josef, a burn victim on an off-shore oil rig
Javier Cámara: the rig's Spanish cook
Daniel Mays: Martin, the rig’s oceanographer
Julie Christie: Hannah’s counselor

REVIEW
The measured pace coupled with pretty much a one-sided conversation for most of the movie allows you time to make your own judgement about individuals and their relationships with others. Both principals do an excellent job of acting (albeit with little dialog from one) as the story unfolds gradually.
