Closer
Released nationwide by Sony Pictures Releasing International on 14 January 2005 Closer is the latest project of Academy Award© winning director Mike Nichols, with a screenplay by Patrick Marber based on his acclaimed stage production.
Closer is a bitingly funny and honest look at modern relationships. It is the story of four strangers: Anna (Julia Roberts), Dan (Jude Law), Alice (Natalie Portman), and Larry (Clive Owen), their chance meetings, instant attractions and casual betrayals.
The edgy script is beautifully complimented by the backdrop of contemporary London. Closer was filmed in many key London locations, such as:
- The National Portrait Gallery
- London Aquarium
- Whiteleys Shopping Centre
- Theatre Royal, Drury Lane
- South Bank
- Thomas More Square
This film challenges us to consider what it really means to be close in an intimate relationship. Is there such a thing as being too close for comfort?
