Title: BEAUTIFUL CREATURES<\/p>\n

Studio: Warner Bros<\/p>\n

Director: Richard LaGravenese<\/p>\n

Cast: Alden Ehrenreich, Alice Englert, Emma Thompson, Viola Davis, Emmy Rossum, Jeremy Irons<\/p>\n

Opens: February 14, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t look for logic here, as \u201cBeautiful Creatures\u201d is a supernatural love story. But that\u2019s the way it should be: who says that love is logical anyway? Richard LaGravenese\u2019s adaptation of Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl\u2019s recent novel is the kind of movie that\u2019s an ideal choice for you for Valentine\u2019s Day which, not coincidentally is the date of its opening. The film features a pair of star-crossed lovers, Ethan Wate (Alden Ehrenreich) and Lena Duchannes (Alice Englert), two performers who are not exceptionally well known but who have been seen, respectively, in Francis Ford Coppola\u2019s \u201cTetro\u201d and in Sally Potter\u2019s \u201cGinger and Rosa.\u201d<\/p>\n

The tale of Alden and Lena could be looked on as one which shows empowered women since, after all, Lena possesses the mystical ability to create storms and break glass windows. On the other hand, however, the narrative toys with the old clich\u00e9 of vulnerable women who have been saved by men. Whence comes this paradox? We look into their lives, which are not particularly enviable until, of course, they get together and use the power of love to rout all that impedes them from joy.<\/p>\n

The story is set in the tiny town of Gatlin, South Carolina\u2013actually filmed by Philippe Rousselot in Louisiana not too far from New Orleans. Ethan is popular enough, a Varsity athlete but one who admits that he\u2019s not much for parties. He\u2019s an aw-shucks kind of guy who complains that the town is too conventional, nothing to do\u2014typical teen talk spoken by kids who probably would not particularly care to live in Chicago or L.A. He\u2019s a good-looking lad with an aggressive but religious girlfriend whose interest is not really shared by Ethan. But sparks fly when he meets Lena, a new girl in town, who is shunned by classmates and apparently friendless because rumors fly that her reclusive, rich uncle Macon Ravenwood (Jeremy Irons), has too much influence in the town he founded. <\/p>\n

When strange things go on such as the shattering of all the windows in a classroom, some suspect that Lena had something to do with it, and they would not be wrong. At a church meeting, Mrs. Lincoln (Emma Thompson) pushes a petition to expel the lass from the school. If only she knew (or does she?) that in a matter of weeks, when Lena turns sixteen, she\u2014a Caster, i.e. a witch\u2014will be Claimed. She will be chosen from a battle between the forces of Light and Dark, and what\u2019s more, any mortal she loves romantically will die.<\/p>\n

As the romance between Ethan and Lena proceed according to the usual rules of dating\u2014except that Ethan will have to overcome Lena\u2019s reluctance to be responsible for the young man\u2019s death\u2014we in the audience become privy to a startling and effective series of effects. The large, gothic manor that houses Lena\u2019s uncle changes both shape and color depending on the moods of the occupants. A table at which are seated guests that for good reason dislike one another is set spinning like a runaway carousel. A reenactment of a Civil War battle fought December 21, 1863 on the land of this small town takes place. A similar battle opens the movie, with Ethan\u2019s hazy, yet scary, dream in which he is on the battlefield and meets the girl he always wanted, one who looks surprisingly like Lena. But the dream always ends with his being struck dead by lightning. In that church, where hundreds call for the expulsion of Lena from the school, Lena\u2019s uncle not only arrives to condemn the inquisition but in the picture\u2019s most magical scene literally stops time for several minutes, emptying the pews, to allow for his discussion with Mrs. Lincoln. The secrets of this unusual family are held by Amma (Viola Davis), the town librarian, who has watched over young Ethan, and who bears witness to the apocalyptic battle about to take place.<\/p>\n

Whether there is palpable chemistry between the two leads is debatable. They kiss quite a bit once Lena overcomes her fear that she may soon be involuntarily killing her man, but since this is a PG-13 film, their lips are closed. Sometimes it looks as though they\u2019re in a clinch like two fighters. <\/p>\n

All in all, \u201cBeautiful Creatures\u201d succeeds in casting a moderate spell over the audience, inhabits a style that makes it superior to the \u201cTwilight\u201d series. It has more light touches and at times you suspect that the players would like occasionally to wink at the audience. The movie possesses a good sense of what life is like in a conservative southern time that\u2014if you believe that Mrs. Lincoln represents the populace\u2014hates Democrats, liberals and homosexuals. The two authors whose novel is adapted state in the production notes that they were \u201calways captivated by fantasies\u201d (Stohl) and \u201cloved stories set in the South\u201d (Garcia). And that\u2019s just LaGravanese\u2019s adaptation gives us.<\/p>\n
