MOVIE - HOUSE OF SAND AND FOG - $$$$$ $$$ (OUT OF 10)

STARRING - Jennifer Connelly (Kathy Nicolo), Ben Kingsley (Colonel Behrani), Ron Eldard (Lester Burdon), Frances Fisher (Connie Walsh), Kim Dickens (Carol Burdon), Shohreh Aghdashloo (Nadi Behrani) & Jonathan Ahdout (Esmail Behrani).

DIRECTOR/CO-WRITER - Vadim Perelman (feature debut)

Based upon the novel, "House of Sand and Fog", by Andre Dubus III.

The House of Sand and Fog is a rare movie in that its characters respond, very naturally, to the contrived circumstances they find themselves in. The House of Sand and Fog is both brilliant and ridiculous at the same time.

The House of Sand and Fog manages to overcome its extremely contrived circumstances and deliver an intense personal drama worth seeing.

Running time - 126 minutes
