Advantages: Moore, Haysbert and Haynes' direction Disadvantages: Quaid is out of his depth and the script can be a touch cliched

Advantages: Good character performances. Disadvantages: A bit dull at times and flat ending.
~~The Movie~~
Far FromHeaven is a film directed by Todd Haynes and it pays homage to Douglas Sirk. Mr Sirk was famous for making melodramas in the 50?s with a bit of feminine touch.
The film is set in the 50?s Hartford, Connecticut and mainly revolves around one family, the Whitakers. In the opening shots you see an aerial view of the town with the scene closing in on Cathy Whitaker picking up her daughter from the ballet class.
Everything seems heavenly with the Whitakers. Cathy Whitaker has two perfect children, a boy and a girl, and a loving high-flying sales executive husband with a nice house and plenty of dosh.
To the rest of Hartford, Cathy Whitaker is a model suburban wife, not only is she a perfect wife and a mother but also she is a very kind and gentle soul and unlike most white folks she doesn?t hate ...
Advantages: Great Tracks Inspirational. Great voice and Lyrics. Disadvantages: none!
. A great song which is really good to relax to. 9.5/10
The next track “The Way We Are” is not such a strong song in comparison to the previous track although it still is worth listening to. Guitar parts along with other instruments are also evident. Lene’s voice is the best factor in this track, she uses the dynamic in the song very well. This song again is another slower track although it picks up a bit when in chorus. This had a nice riff to it on times in the guitar part. Not one of the best songs on here. A bit of a low.6/10
The next track picks up from Unforgivable Sinner it begins rather uptempo with strong beat and string section. “So I See” is an uplifting song with a very catchy chorus. I particularly like the verses, the are performed well and the words have meaning like the rest of the album ...
