MOVIE REVIEW: RAJA (2003) * (1 star out of 4).
External link: http://www.filmsdulosange.fr/uk_prochainement_afri.php
This movie starts out with a promising premise, of a wealthy French estate owner in Morocco , who falls for one of the women who work in his garden. She is beautiful, already involved with someone, and feels nothing for this man whom she finds to be very unattractive and who is married and who doesn't speak the same language as she does. But the disparity between his fabulous wealth and her abject poverty places tremendous pressure on her to consider the relationship. But the movie rambles along very slowly and ultimately goes nowhere. There are some clever lines, here and there, but not nearly enough to carry the movie. The movie is in French and Arabic with English subtitles for both.
