Editorial Reviews

- Import Korea - English language - Subtitle in English and Korea are optional - NTSC All Regions. - Greta Scacchi sizzles in this sexually charged story of a man and a woman drawn together by physical desires yet divided by class and culture. Georges is a sensual, frank and completely uninhibited woman of today. Gavin is a traditional working man of the sea, simple strong and obedient, a man of yesterday. Friends as children, their immature indifference grows from teenage obsession to full blown passion. Their friendship endures the years and their sexual exploration is often rekindled as they rendezvous periodically in Paris, the Caribbean and Florida. But always, their distinctive worlds clash. Follow Gavin and Georges as they live the full, sad, funny and sexy lives of two people who were never meant to be.

5.0 out of 5 stars Salt On Our Skin, November 1, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Salt on Our Skin (Import, All Regions) (DVD)
If you're a D'Onofrio fan, you'll really want to own this one. It's a story of passion that seems to ever have the one lover out of step with the other. So many opportunities are given in this film for us to whisper, "I wouldn't do that!" But, "they" do and you get to go along for the ride.

You will see little exchanges that are ever so human between the lovers that eventually, you'll be doing something similiar and be reminded of the film. It'll haunt you like that.

There's passion...there's foolishness...there's love and understanding - what's not to like? It's humanity in all it's glory and nonsense! I'd highly recommend this movie as an afternoon get away!

This review is from: Salt on Our Skin (Import, All Regions) (DVD)
An interesting way to review the careers of Scacchi and D'Onofrio, but otherwise, it's a no go. Long term adultery is not a sympathetic love story. It's hard to empathize with Georges (Scacchi), a woman who doesn't want to be the wife of a fisherman, but wants to bang him annually, for old time's sake. Gavin (D'Onofrio) portrays the traditionally female role of the seduced partner who then feels awfully, awfully bad about betraying the spouse. They are supposed to age from late teens to late middle age, but mostly D'Onofrio grows more and more and more facial hair. One becomes frightened of how he will appear at their next assignation. Of the two, he is nevertheless more convincing in the aging process, and in his final scene the beard is at last under control and practically believable. D'Onofrio looks very fine in his introductory scene, and Scacchi is lovely, but the story is unconvincing, overwrought and overlong.
