Floating Away (1998)
startlingly good

I tuned in by accident to this film the other night on cable TV. In my opinion (with the exception of Executioner's Song and Fast Times at Ridgemont High), this is the finest work done by ANY of the lead actors---and the ONLY truly fine work EVER committed to celluloid by Paul Hogan in his life. The style, pacing, and 'Odyssean' elements of this remarkable film caught me by surprise---I couldn't tune away. Although I have never read any of the works of the author of the book upon which this film was based, I am impressed enough to want to. Director John Badham's earlier Saturday Night Live I think suggests the ability a quarter of a century later to adapt this obviously superior work of fiction.
