Profile of Passion Play

Passion Play can be described as offbeat, atmospheric, and uplifting. The plot revolves around outward appearances, being down on your luck, and redemption. The main genres are independent, romance, and fantasy. In approach, Passion Play is fantastical and serious. It is set, at least in part, at a circus and in the desert. It is located in Los Angeles. Passion Play takes place in the 1950s.

Summary of Passion Play

Nate (Mickey Rourke), a small-time jazz musician, is clearly a hard-luck case. Caught trying to break into a car, he is taken off into the desert where his assailant puts a gun to his head. Game over? Not quite. Stumbling into a circus pitched amidst the vast expanses of the southwest desert, Nate finds himself drawn to the exotic beauty of Lily (Megan Fox), the Bird Woman. Lily is cold and dismissive; socializing with customers is not her scene. But it dawns on her that this gentle giant may well be her way out of a life of eccentric exposition. Nate is protective and understanding, and to him her aquiline beauty is a magic part of her uniqueness. As their bond deepens, Nate finds that his dreams of bliss are about to be thwarted by Happy Shannon (Bill Murray), a cucumber-cool businessman with deep pockets and an eye for the bizarre.

Embarrassing
Passion Play is so impassionate, unsuspenseful and so "un-noir" that is a shock and awe to me, how is this film even gets made. Especially in the honest independent industry.
Likely to see
Not for me
