Editorial Review:

Album Description:
A strong blend of suspense, star-crossed romance and wry comedy of manners, Married Life is an unconventional human drama about the irresistible power and utter madness of love. Harry (Chris Cooper) decides he must kill his wife Pat (Patricia Clarkson) because he loves her too much to let her suffer when he leaves her. Harry and his much younger girlfiend Kay (Rachel McAdams) are head over heels in love but his best friend Richard (Pierce Brosnan) wants to win Kay for himself. As Harry implements his awkward plan for murdering his wife, the other characters are occupied with their own deceptions. Like Harry, they are overwhelmed by their passions, but still struggle to avoid hurting others. Married Life is an uncommonly adult film that surprises and confounds expectations. While it plays with mystery and intrigue, its ultimate concern is: What is Married Life? In its sly way, Married Life poses perceptive questions about the seasonal discontents and unforeseen joys of of all long-term relationships.

Far too many period productions look right, but feel wrong. Set in 1949, Married Life doesn't just bring the post-war era to vivid life with cigarettes and cocktails aplenty; it even plays like a product of the time. In that respect, it calls to mind AMC's Mad Men, except Ira Sachs (Forty Shades of Blue) takes a lighter tone towards domestic disharmony. In this well-scrubbed suburban world, middle-class wives, like Pat (Patricia Clarkson), build their lives around their husbands. Pat and Harry (Chris Cooper) seem happy, but Harry confesses to his pal, Richard (narrator Pierce Brosnan), that the spark is gone. He plans to leave Pat for vibrant young war widow Kay (Rachel McAdams in a role that recalls The Notebook). Once Richard, a notorious ladies man, gets a gander at the platinum blonde, he secretly sets out to win her affections, while Harry plots to take Pat out of the picture. Married Life almost simulates one of Alfred Hitchcock’s pessimistic disquisitions on matrimony, yet Harry and Richard seek less hurtful means to achieve their goals. Though women's lib has yet to hit the suburbs, Pat and Kay harbor desires of their own, and the best-laid plans soon go awry. Though Kay could use further development, this ensemble hums along almost as harmoniously as the quartet in Starting Out in the Evening. Along with co-writer Oren Moverman (I'm Not There), Sachs transforms John Bingham’s 1953 novel, Five Roundabouts to Heaven, into an insightful treatise on love, marriage, and fidelity. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

- Entertaining Movie
"Music and Lyrics" isn't a classic movie but one to throw into your DVD when you just want a bit of entertainment. Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore are delightful, the story is cute, and who doesn't like a "happily ever after" ending? Love the music, too!!!!!!!

- Very well done 50's era melodrama.
Reminded me of "all that heaven allows" with Randy Quaid a recent 50's style movie, with a little more dramatic story. But, this captured the quietness of the 50's were one could actually think without all the electric noise frying our brain waves.
The story is pretty simple, husband thinks his younger mistress is the woman he should be with, so, in order not to embarrass his wife by asking for a divorce he plans to murder her. Meanwhile, husband introduces mistress to his best friend, a ... Read More

- Middleweight period-piece drama
I rented this on a whim, in part because I'd read that it resembles a Hitchcock movie. It doesn't, really, but it's a decent little drama that captures the look and feel of a bygone era almost perfectly. It's not really a thriller, or a comedy, or even a heavyweight drama. It's more of a character study, with a couple of suspenseful scenes along the way. I enjoyed it, but it's pretty forgettable. This movie reminded me in some ways of Todd Haynes' "Far from Heaven." If you liked that, you'll probably ... Read More

- "Appearances Aren't Everything"
Not since `Pleasantville (New Line Platinum Series)' or `Quiz Show' has a movie in recent memory captured the vintage setting in the middle of the last century so well. Every piece of furniture, every outfit, every office décor points to the year 1949 in `Married Life,' but it's really the feel and emotional tone that imprint this old-fashioned noir so well. If they didn't speak so frankly about sex, it could have been a dead ringer original from its period.

Pierce Brosnan is no Cary Grant ... Read More

- All Is Not What It Seems
MARRIED LIFE will probably fare better in the DVD format where this at times disturbing view of marital status can be viewed in private rather than in the company of the throngs that resemble the characters depicted in this fine little film. Based on the novel 'Five Roundabouts to Heaven' by John Bingham and well adapted to the screen by Oren Moverman and director Ira Sachs, MARRIED LIFE is a dissection of the hallowed state of matrimony, and one that shows the creases and little holes that make so many marriages ...
