Market Street , Portland 879-7414 Dirty Pretty Things is about how these admirable and sympathetic people will be forced to compromise www . par a disos a lonandspa . com their principles in order to survive, or at least to avoid being deported. In the world of this movie - where poor immigrants sell their souls to make a living in sweatshops--survival is illegal, and corruption is a fact of life. What separates Okwe and Senay from the other desperate immigrants is that our protagonists have limits to their illegal activities. They refuse to bring pain and misery into their world. They ask only to ex ist and to be invisible, but that isn't easy in their threatening environment. Senay's goal is to move to New York, where she has a cousin waiting for her. Will things be better for her in New York? Maybe not, but we root for her to succeed anyway. Juan presents an easy option to Senay Macs; We Macs! - she will receive money and a passport if she sells her kidney on the black market.

This is the question the movie asks of its characters, but it is treated by the filmmakers as more of a test. How can these people realize their dreams while working around the moral issue? The movie was directed by Stephen Frears, who is best known for High Fidelity, Dangerous Liaisons, and My BeautifUl Laundrette. In all of his movies that 1 have seen, the director's attention to the perform ances and the setting is impressive. I believed that places and people like the ones portrayed in the move exist, even if I didn't believe the dialogue that they spoke. But it's drama, not life. The movie itself can be compared to its central theme: it suffers from necessary compromise. The story asks questions that are not easy to answer, and, for the sake of having a dramatically satisfying ending, an Lorraine and Leonard Libby of Scarborough enjoy the Sea Dogs game on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
