Movie Rating

When I hear anything about Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, it's usually in the manner of "omgz orgy movie" but that's completely glossing over what I think makes this movie so great. Yes, it's about a couple's journey into sexual freedom, but the thing that elevates this film to five stars for me is the exploration by the characters into their own senses of intimacy.
As the film unfolds, we get to watch each character evolve and work through their own insecurities and feelings in a way that I think is sorely absent in today's world. In real time, we can see them identify the feeling they are having, trace it to it's source, and push past it towards a resolution.
The performances, especially Natalie Woods' as Carol, are chock full of great nonverbal expressions that bring the subtext of the film to life.
What Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice has to offer is a masterclass in the subtleties of human expression and it is a joy to watch.
