The Sea Purple User Reviews:
Viola
di mare or Purple Sea (also known as The Sea Purple) (2009) was written
and directed by Donatella Maiorca. It's set on a barren island in the
Mediterranean sea in the 19th Century. This clearly isn't paradise for
anyone, and it's hell for a lesbian couple.
Isabella Ragonese
plays Sara, who returns to the island after many years away. Valeria
Solarino plays Angela, a determined, forceful woman, whose gender and
sexual orientation make her a rebel and an outcast. These women fall in
love--or, actually, revive their love--and they are clearly meant to be a
couple. However, in a small, closed society like this one, their life
together is considered impossible.
This is the basic plot (and
the basic problem). What follows in the film is a compelling drama of
true love trying to flourish--or at least survive--in an unlikely
setting and in an unlikely way.
Both women are very lovely and
the overall acting in the film is excellent. The production values are
high. This is a movie worth seeking out and seeing. It will lose some of
the barren scenic quality on the small screen, but it will otherwise
work well on DVD. We had the privilege of seeing it at the Dryden
Theatre, as part of the superb ImageOut Rochester Gay and Lesbian Film
Festival.
