Fraser plays Darkley Noon, a disturbed young man who received a sheltered upbringing from his strict Christian parents. When the elder Noons pass on, Darkly wanders off aimlessly until he is picked up by a passing truck driver named Jude (Loren Dean). Jude leaves the physically worn Darkly with Callie (Judd) and Clay (Mortensen), a young married couple. As Callie cares for Darkly, he begins to develop romantic and sexual feelings for her, feelings that threaten to turn violent when Darkly is taunted by the love between Callie and Clay.

Where is this supposed to be taking place? And when? The couple is living in the forest to escape being looked down upon in town for not being married? Darkly used to belong to a religious sect/cult in which his parents were killed, again by those vicious "local townspeople". So when and where is this taking place? 100 years ago?

I bought this movie mainly because I'm a huge fan of Ashley Judd so I was sure there was going to be something about it that I liked. But wow, this movie is amazing. The plot is great, the acting is brilliant and the characters are so complex yet believable. There are some really good songs in it too, especially the one in the end credits, sung by PJ Harvey. I love the scene with the big sparkling shoe on the lake and I think it's a shame you find out the reason why it's there in the end of the movie ... Read More

I'm almost ashamed to admit I watched the whole thing.
This seems to be the premise: throw together a lot of blood and fire and nipples and explosions and bullet holes and you have a movie. . .
Sorry.
. . .then, for good measure, throw in a circus elephant. . .
Sorrier.
I still can't believe I watched the whole thing.

All the performances were great but I found the movie to be a little disturbing. Brendan was able to show his acting range by playing such a dark character.

Much like The Reflecting Skin, The Passion of Darkly Noon is one of those films you'll love or hate. Cliche, I know, but it's quite true. For those of you who loved the mood of Lynch's Twin Peaks or the intensity of Blue Velvet, or those who really enjoy a slow brooding atmosphere above the noise and chaos of standard Hollywood action fare, it's a real treat.
The stranger and more 'surreal' elements of the film are actually very clearly explained within the film by the characters themselves! ... Read More
