Boxing Helena (DVD, 2001)

Julian Sands is incredible as Nick Cavanaugh, a wealthy, caring, gifted surgeon who appears to "have it all" including many intense emotional issues that come to a head in his obsessive love for Helena, a cold-hearted, beautiful, lady-of-the-world who seems destined to learn it's dangerous to play with love. Sherilyn Fenn plays Helena to the hilt, developing the character into the woman you both love and hate.

If you have never seen this movie, you've missed one of the most visually stunning, sensuous (without being sleazy) movies ever made. Combine this visual impact with a multi-layered plot that twists your mind like a fun house maze and you've got Boxing Helena.

If you've only had the opportunity to watch this movie once, watch it again (in its unrated release). There are subtleties of plot and character development that I'm certain you missed the first time because you were too busy trying to figure out where the plot was going. Join us fans in the Box…you’ll love it! ;>)

Rented this movie when it was first available on DVD and just had to see it again. Cinematography and sound track are primo. A distinctive plot that twists and turns with an added suprise closure.

A sexy tale of obsession with a slight tinge of the surgical macabre. Taking the obsession of love to the extreme so to speak. If you can't finesse love, box it up and take it home with you ha ha. You might even find yourself thinking she deserved it.

Thought one of the doctors looked familiar but it didn't click till I read the actor credits. Art Garfunkel MD, imagine that. Great flick, was glad I could add it to my collection. If you think you might enjoy a slightly grimm love story, check this one out.

This is a very good movie, very touching. Get over the fear of watching this and you will be rewarded with a moving experience. It has a great soundtrack, one of the best I have ever heard, and perfect for this movie.

Loved the movie, so unpredictable and kept my attention 100% of the time. Would recommend to the ladies however my boyfriend was not a fan.

I SAW THIS MOVIE YEARS AND YEARS AGO. NO ONE THAT I KNOW EVER SAW IT. I REMEMBERED IT TO BE VERY STRANGE BUT IN A GOOD WAY! IT WAS. EXCELLENT MOVIE!!! I HAVE ALREADY PASSED IT ALONG TO 3 FRIENDS WHO WATCHED IT AND LOVED IT IN A STRANGE WAY!! GRREAT MOVIE JUST AS I REMEMBERED!! I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT FUNNY THAT I COULD NOT FIND IT IN ANY STORES OR EVER SAW IT ON DEMAND OR ON TV. SO THE FACT THAT NOBODY KNEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT INSPIRED ME TO BUY IT AND SHARE IT. A+
