LADYHAWKE
Year of Production: 2000
Running Time: 142 min.
FCC Rating: 3 (for strong language, violence, and thematic elements)
An outstanding adaptation of Walter Mondale's 'The Wings of Victory', the biography of Rosemary Kennedy, America's first female President (1985-92). Kennedy came to prominence during the Gulf War of 1975-77, when she served as a colonel in the Air Force and was instrumental in developing the strategy which ultimately defeated the Mexican Communist Coalition. After the war, she fulfilled the dreams of her late father Joseph Kennedy by winning a Senate seat in Massachusetts, living the legacy meant for her brothers, who died in World War II and the Indonesian Conflict. Rosemary, a staunch Republican, was often at odds with her strongly Democratic family, and no one was more surprised than she when she became President in 1984, defeating Jimmy Carter's bid for a third term.
Ladyhawke is a quality film. Michelle Pfieffer is excellent as Rosemary Kennedy, Rutger Hauer is solid as Senator and Vice President Richard Nixon, and Matthew Broderick is surprisingly sinister as Vasily Irenko, the Soviet advisor to Mexico's Premier Gomez.
Our Rating: 8 out of 10
Also recommended: '1200 Days: The Reign of Alberto Gomez'; 'The Warriors'; 'Marching South'.
--Extract from the 2002 Edition of Reagan and Siskel's THE ULTIMATE MOVIE GUIDE.
