An honest, if terrible look at relationships, love and faith

I am very surprised "Last Night" got a rather lukewarm user rating on IMDb. From my point of view it is a movie that is very honest, if terrible in its depiction of relationships, love and faith. There were many moments, where I expected the movie to lose its momentum, where the filmmakers could have chickened out, but that never happened. Maybe too much is talked about, when some things could have been told through pictures. Then again, I found all dialog very believable. My only criticism concerns Sam Worthington's rather wooden performance. Apart from that "Last Night" really knocked me off my feet, from the beginning right until the brilliant final scene.

not invested in their relationship

Joanna (Keira Knightley) is a writer married to commercial real estate agent Michael Reed (Sam Worthington). She meets his co-worker Laura Nunez (Eva Mendes) at a party and suspects they had an affair during their L.A. business trip. He leaves for Philadelphia with Laura while she encounters her ex Alex Mann (Guillaume Canet). Sandra (Stephanie Romanov) and Truman (Griffin Dunne) are his friends.

Sam Worthington is not a compelling actor to me. I never bought a ticket on the Worthington express. I don't find any buy-in with his relationship with Knightley. I'm not invested in them and their struggles hold no tension. It's a lot of talk. It teases a reckoning but it never delivers. It's a truncated movie about a relationship that I'm not sure I care about in the first place.

One night stand

An attractive young couple in Manhattan is preparing for a party at a business acquaintance of the husband's. Joanna senses an attraction Michael seems to have for a gorgeous co-worker. As they return home, a full confrontation ensues. Joanna feels Michel must have had a fling with Laura the last time both traveled to the West Coast for a business presentation, something he vehemently denies. Joanna gives him the benefit of the doubt as they eventually make up. In a way, Joanna compounds on the problem for whatever Michael has felt for Laura.

Massy Tadjedin, the talented director of "Last Night", obviously knows the people she is presenting in this intimate tale about human relations at a crucial moment in their young lives,. To complicate the situation, Alex, the former French lover of Joanna shows suddenly on the scene. Michael, out of town with a team that includes Laura, suddenly feels the loss of self-control. Joanna, suddenly, finds herself falling in the same situation she accused Michael of doing. Obviously, her love for Alex is still alive.

Ms. Tadjedin clearly understand what make these somewhat successful people become trapped in the situations they get involved in our modern times, where loyalty to one's married partner is taken for granted in our permissive society, where satisfaction to one's senses is dealt lightly, not taking in consideration of the hurt is causing on the other one.

An inspired casting of Keira Knightly is one of the reasons for watching this film. Ms. Knightly is at a good moment in her career. Her intelligent approach to her Joanna resonates with the viewer. Same could be said of the Michael of Sam Worthington, a handsome and virile presence in the movie. Michael has lots of doubts, feeling guilty in the step he is going to take. Guillaume Canet, the talented French actor-director, seems to be a bit uncomfortable with his Alex. Gorgeous Eva Mendes, not usually seen in dramatic roles, is a revelation as Laura.

Peter Deming, the director of photography, catches the somber night lights of the Manhattan where the story is set. Clint Mansell music scores creates a layer of texture in the film. One can only hope for future ventures of Massi Tadjedin.
