Quills (2000)

Utterly Lucious
This movie is wonderful! The acting, the script, the story, the drama, the tension and resolution are all perfect. Great humor and horror mixed fantastically together. Plus Kate Winslet is gorgeous.

This is a great movie...however...
Quills, really is an excellent movie that I thoroughly enjoyed, and one that I would highly recommend. That is, if you can take the movie out of context it and realize it as a work of fiction. Although the movie uses actual people that were in the Marquis De Sade's life during his stay at Charenton, this movie definitely uses its creative license. If you know nothing of Marquis De Sade, then you will have no problem with the fictionalized historical aspects of this movie. I did have prior knowledge of this infamous man and I still enjoyed this movie, because I could recognize it for what it is. A work of historical FICTION in the form of a movie. So if things like this bother you, I wouldn't recommend watching it, or if talk of sexual perversity and acts of violence bother you, I wouldn't recommend it either. But if those things don't bother you and you like a truly interesting movie, and an equally interesting take on a historically infamous man, then you're in for a treat!

GREAT MOVIE!
This was a really good movie. Usually, movies like this make me lose interest quickly, but I was sitting on the edge of my seat the entire time. I encourage anyone to purchase this. Great for the collection!
