Gaudi Afternoon Movie Review

Oddball and out of sync, I'm at a loss to figure out how Judy Davis, Juliette Lewis, and Marcia Gay Harden got attached to this project -- with Harden agreeing to play a transsexual, at that. Meandering and a little bit vapid, what develops is a light piece about the hapless Davis, hired to work as a kind of P.I. in Barcelona in a missing persons case. Needless to say, lots of silliness about gender-bending ensues. Definitely for the woman who's comfortable with her sense of self.
