The Designated Mourner

Movie (1997)

The Designated Mourner
David Hare directs this difficult adaptation of Wallace Shawn's acclaimed stage play, centring on the thoughts of three people living together in an unnamed country under an oppressive regime that is executing intellectuals. The trio sit together to deliver their arguments as a series of monologues, which can make it seem rather pretentious. It's also all very static, having hardly been changed from the original script, but can be rewarding for viewers prepared to stick it out. Drama, marking the acting debut of director Mike Nichols. Miranda Richardson and David De Keyser also star
