Trixie Reviews
Very enjoyable mystery
It is a pleasure to watch and listen to this movie very carefully to get all of the humor -- stay focused or you will miss a lot. Though you are laughing about this charming and interesting cast of misfits and semi-morons, you never really laugh at them as you try to work your way through Trixie's muddled haze to figure out who did what.
All the actors play their best known and acclaimed character roles to the hilt, never disappointing. Emily Watson is wonderful as the malapropped mystery solver -- who can play a wise simpleton better? Who can beat Nathan Lane as a cynical washed-up entertainer, never failing to impersonate, charm, and see through the act. Nick Nolte plays the sleezy, cynical, Senator, lampooning politicians saying nothing while always dazzling. Dermot Mulroney shines as the sexy simple not-so-good would-be gigolo with a heart. Who can play the sexy simpleton vamp better than Leslie Ann Warren? Ruby Pearli is captivating as the wannabe star lounging her way into and out of the mystery and notereity. There are too many other actors to name that add so much to this movie.
The camera work with mirrors is amazing and mesmerizing.
An enjoyable escape -- one of those movies you will enjoy the more often you watch it.
simple
This movie invites comparison with Fargo-which is vastly superior. The difference is that while Emily Watson plays her character as simply stupid, Francis McDormand plays her character as innocent, giving Faro a major theme to explore while Trixie has nothing more than a device to play with.
