Cairo Time

CAIRO TIME (2009) - Sept. 14, 2009
An entertaining film about a woman who goes to Egypt to meet her husband, only to find that he's tied up with work. Instead, she ends up spending a lot of her time with a charming friend of her husband's. The film was well made and very well acted, particularly Alexander Siddig as the husband's friend. In fact, he was so good that I found my interest kind of waning every time he was off the screen. Not that Patricia Clarkson wasn't good, but her character was kind of bland, and so the movie suffered every time Siddig left her alone (which was a good half of the movie). **1/2
