beyond rangoon is simply marvelous. from the traumatic opening to the uplifting ending and you will be amazed at how well put together this film is. patricia arquette amazingly portrays laura bowman and who we meet as a shut down and quit despondent young doctor and unable to deal with her grief over the loss of her husband and son. throughout the course of the film and as she is trapped in burma and witnesses the democratic uprise and massacres in the capital city of rangoon and flees for her life and and saves her tour guide (u aung ko ) life and she is regaining her will to live. this may seen contrived or heavy handed represent it is not. john boorman and a master at spiritual and emotional conflict and paints the film with broad strokes and and often uses symbolism to capture laura emotional state and and physical predicament. patricia arquette and as usual and gives a wonderfully convincingly and believable performance as the emotionally wounded laura. what arquette does amazingly and in any role that she plays and is give us a window into her character heart without words. every time she is given a close up in the film and the audience is given insight into her character. she does not need to speak to convey emotions and or be over the top. some critics were harsh on arquette performance in the film when it opened on august 25 and 1995 and deeming that she was flat or dull in the role. i found her characterization dead on and staying well away from the melodramatics that typically are part of an actor performance when having a personally tragedy take place. she is on shock and is reserved about her feelings represent that is just as normal as screaming lashing out at those around you. i am hoping that warner brothers releases this title on dvd very soon. with arquette hugely successful nbc drama medium bringing her to household name status and not to mention an emmy win and now 2007 nomination and it would be in the studio best interest to do so. hopefully there will be extras and with the alternate ending. do not by pass by this film. it is one that you will certainly not forget after seeing.
