by Rebecca Clifford The College Voicer Gorillas in the Mist directed by Michael Apted, is a biographical film on the late Dian Fossey who worked with the mountain gorillas of Rwanda, bauling for their survival against poachers. Sigourney Weaver stars as Fossey, a woman so obsessed with her creatures that she ends up cutting herself off from the human world and risking the lives of others as well as herself. Her admiration and dedication to the animals in the beginning is admirable yet, as the film progresses, becomes a little terrifying. Throughout the years that Fossey is working in the mountains she becomes more attached to her gorillas, and more isolated from the rest of the world. Eventually she is driven to near m~dness, threaten.mg the lives of tourists and natives, and she demands to have the mountain shut off from outsiders, The gorillas • become a partofher and she is a part of them, and no one can stop her from doing what she wants to protect them. The film isa U1dtoo long, and it takes a while to become involved i? it. The beginning is slow-each ~cene seems to move at an awkward pace and the dialogue is stilted. By the second hour, however, the pace plcks up and Gallery 11 Fossey's character becomes increasingly absorbing. There are moments in the film that lie on the brink of being corny, however, and they do sometimes go a little overboard. When Dian and her photographer, Bob Cambell, played with great warmth by Bryan Brown, Gallery Review: romantically seduce each other in her hut, the genuine love that they have for each other is apparent. Yet the scene is filled with soap opera-like dialogue, which almost made me groan out loud. There are few scenes that escape such goo. The most engaging and entrancing are the ones where Dian is mimicking and making her initial contact Gallery 11 Opens with with the gorillas. The combination of Apted's sensitive direction and Weaver's acting makes you feel as though you are taken into a special world. The potential strength of this film is undermined by Maurice Jarre's music, which is perfeetly awful. It is a First Show of the Year highly- synthesized variety of muzak, eomplete with cute little pipes every now and then. This stuff creeps into almost every scene, adding a mawkish tone to the film. Itis Sigourney Weaver'sbrilliant portrayal if Dian that gives the film real substance. She is shown as an isolated and ink drawing of a girl reading. woman against the backdrop of an entirely foreign nation. Her mass of hair, her height, and overall stunning yet by Erk Barnes Yet there is a kind of life to it, a unglamorous appearance make her stand out among everyone else in the film. She is an entirely self-absorbed The College Voke reality in the crumpled, nearly hid- and obsessive woman who will not let anyone else rule her life. Weaver slides into her role with such ease that she becomes Fossey, She deftly shows, from the start, the Gallery 11 is a converted ping- den teddy bear and the slight smile obsessiveness this woman had with these animals. Her first sighting of them between the bamboo stalks is full pong room and, by no fault of the of the girl. of a subtle and yet deep fascination that is wonderful to watch.
