Beautiful and Magical Tale of Love
In Chicago, the lonely architect Alex Wyler (Keanu Reeves) has a troubled relationship with his father Simon Wyler (Christopher Plummer). In 2004, he buys an old glass house in a lake, designed and built by his father, and he finds a message in his mailbox from the former tenant, the also lonely Dr. Kate Forster (Sandra Bullock), asking to deliver her correspondence in an address downtown. Alex meets his brother Henry (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) in Chicago and when they go to the address with Dr. Forster’s correspondence, they find a building of luxury apartments under construction to be delivered eighteen months later. After some messages, Alex and Kate disclose that she is living in 2006 and Alex in 2004, they fall in love for each other and they try to find means to meet each other.“The Lake House” is a beautiful and magical tale of impossible love, with a wonderful chemistry between the gorgeous Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves. The story has many flaws and lack of explanations, and slightly recalls the idea of the excellent “Sliding Doors”, but better off forget the inconsistencies and enjoy the nice love story. My vote is seven.
Title (Brazil): “A Casa no Lago” (“The House in the Lake”)
Gorgeous!
“The Lake House”, starring long time friends Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock – working together again for the first time since “Speed” (1994) – is a story of semi-magical connection between a man and a woman which spans the width of two years. You see, Kate (Bullock) and Alex (Reeves) have both lived in the same gorgeous house made entirely of glass. Kate is moving out and leaves a letter in the mailbox wishing the next tenant good luck and enjoyment in the house, as well as a forwarding address for her mail. Through movie magic (and possibly fate), Alex – who just purchased the house – receives this letter and the two begin to correspond.Confused at first, they soon realize they are living two years apart, Alex in 2004 and Kate in 2006. While an odd set of circumstances (and theoretically impossible), they continue to write. Both are failures when it comes to relationships and they find the letters a great chance to talk to someone of the opposite sex and not have to face rejection. Soon they fall in love but are not sure how they could ever meet to make a relationship work because of the time issues. They share a dog (too complicated to explain here) and their hearts. Attempts to meet do not work and they begin to lose hope. Can they find a way to be together? Or will this simply be another failed relationship to add to their lists? Despite what people have been saying, I thoroughly enjoyed “The Lake House.” Complex, sci-fi plot aside, it comes down to a story about how two peoples lives change when they allow themselves to connect. It’s honest. Its cinematography is gorgeous and the performances are good. Keanu and Sandra have an amazing on-screen chemistry as we have witnessed before (in Speed), but here it is more mature. Sandra delivers a performance closer to her character in “Crash” (2005) and less like that of “Miss Congeniality.” Kate is a charming but self-conscious and lonely woman. Keanu gives what I believe is his best performance in a movie yet! His famous slightly “wooden” acting style is perfect for the character of lonely architect Alex, and he can really become someone quite believable and open in the moments when his character is happy. While the two do not share much direct on-screen time, that serves to make the moments they do share it SO desirable. The viewer longs to see Alex and Kate meet face to face and for this relationship to work out for them. Especially delightful, were the voice-overs (of the letter reading and writing) which filled the movie as other things happened. It was a clever way to keep them from always sitting at a desk and brightened the tone of the film overall.
Forget thinking about how all the time travel works, that’s not the important part. The important point of this movie is the relationship between these two people. The magic of the time transcending mailbox only serves to bring them together, but so do many other things in their lives (as we come to find out). It gives the viewer hope that maybe they are destined for love like this – maybe not with the assistance of a post office receptacle – but fated in some way to meet that one person for them.
“The Lake House” is a touching film, free of all the hustle and bustle of modern American cinema and culture in general. There’s no emailing, just good old-fashioned letter writing. It’s a throwback to the real movies – before we forgot how to make them – before we forgot that a movie is about the people in it and not about sex, drugs and rock and roll. “The Lake House” is a beautiful film and you should really go see it. Don’t go in expecting it to all make sense, but go in with an open heart and open eyes and let it win you over. Critics have gone to theaters with their arms crossed and their minds made up already. Take a lesson from Alex and Kate, open your heart and see what happens. And hey, it’s only $8.00. 😉
