| SYNOPSIS
|
| "Romance
& Cigarettes" is a down-and-dirty musical love story set
in the world of the working class. Nick (Gandolfini) is an ironworker
who builds and repairs bridges. He's married to Kitty (Sarandon),
a dressmaker, a strong and gentle woman with whom he has three daughters.
He is carrying on a torrid affair with a redheaded woman named Tula
(Winslet). Nick is basically a good, hardworking man driven forward
by will and blinded by his urges. Like Oedipus at Colonus, he is sent
into exile and searches to find his way back through the damage he
has done. In an imaginative, humorous, and touching way, "Romance
& Cigarettes" explores the cost and value of a relationship
through life and death. When the characters can no longer express
themselves with language, they break into song, lip-synching the tunes
lodged in their subconscious. It is their way to escape the harsh
reality of their world – to dream, to remember, and to connect
to another human being. |
