mpower1112 I've seen a lot of Peter O'Toole's movies, but never heard of this one. Charlotte Rampling? One of my favorites, she became more beautiful as she grew older. Here she's fairly young. And Max Von Sydow? How could one ignore this stellar cast so let's plunge in. A strange alternative reality about aristocrats marooned on an island to escape the war in Europe. Costumes are so outlandish they overshadow the actors at first. But gradually you realize the script is somewhat intelligent, a surprise. And the cast eventually overcomes the absurd premise and some real emotions emerge, again a surprise. So in the end the cream rises to the top, the actors make the best of what must have been a strange interlude in their professional lives and Foxtrot ends up being a somewhat fascinating sleeper. I would love to hear the story of the making of this movie, I have a feeling that narrative would be the real winner.

GUENOT PHILIPPE I really don't know what to think, say and write about this strange film. I have not seen anything from Arturo Ripstein before, and I will probably never see anything from him later. This one is somewhere fascinating, surprising and not foreseeable at any point of view. I did not know what it was about. No plot line on IMDb.We find here Charlotte Rampling, Max Von Sydow and Peter O'Toole, all used to international casts and productions. Some people find themselves on a paradise island, in the thirties, some time before the war they all could feel very close. And, of course, we assist at a tragedy, because of Charlotte Rampling between Sydow, Peter O'Toole and also Claudio Brooke. A drama, as we although could expect. The filming is rather classic, and actors directing too. But the story remains very offbeat. I am surprised that no user has commented it yet. So it's done. I have filled my duty.
