EYES WIDE OPEN (Opens Today: Feb 5th in NYC)
indieWIRE.com’s Michael Koresky on Haim Tabakman‘s EYES WIDE OPEN:
“It’s so tempting to treat “Eyes Wide Open” as the preposterous melodrama that it easily could have been, but Tabakman manages to make a well composed, unemphatic, and fleet-footed drama out of the overheated material. A more restrained portrait of unconsummated desire might have been both more authentic and compelling, but a less titillating film would have attracted little attention.”
