birth (2004)

[FairyOfFakeDeath]

This little boy, is one of the best Child-actors I've ever seen!!!

[60scinema]

How her family reacted to her belief is how some people's families react when they come out of the closet. Although it's probably not the best analogy, you get the point...families can be cruel. Although this film is marketed as a "thriller/ghost story," to me it plays out much more like a drama of a bad/awkward situation and how inept and unsupportive the fams reaction to their own daughter really is. Despite the luxuries of their "high society" ways, they ultimately treat Anna like crap.

[folladordeprostis]

I like her "rosemary baby" haircut.....

[folladordeprostis]

Sean jr was really in love with anna,he was not crazy or kidding ,he fell in love with her

[tallrangersx]

G R E A T F I L M ......

[folladordeprostis]

@tallrangersx That kid lost his virginity with nicole

[xxwesdogxx]

[folladordeprostis]

@xxwesdogxx go watch harry potter or other childish movie

[helter666skelter94]

what a beautiful and sad movie!

[Friendulum]

Or, as they pronounce it in Brooklyn, "Boith."

[EmiIyVolturi]

cameron bright is hot as hell now XD

[helter666skelter94]

@EmiIyVolturi ahaha yeah u r right ahahah so hot!

[bhughes1971]

This movie bothered me after seeing it for some reason. I thought it was brilliant, but also disturbing at the same time.

[Cinema60s]

A beautiful, unfairly overlooked film!!! Haunts my mind like an Opera. A film of profound meaning and emotion that most seem unable to acknowledge or handle.

[olsen091]

What makes parents allow their children to participate in movies like this? It couldn't have been an easy role to take on for such a young boy.

[opperjosco]

this movie is worse than cornman, nothing happens in the whole movie

[markbot]

I liked Anne Heche in her small part--small but meaningful. Nicole Kidman gives an astonishing performance. The score is hypnotic. A highly underrated film.

[PANELESAGUTE]

not enough underrated actually

[ACADEMYGIRLZ6]

I heard of this movie! my frineds were talking bout it at dance camp

[patsematary]

no doubt ,Kidman enlighten the movie ,but the plot is the weakest side of history. Definitely a director skilled in videoclip & ad cannot shot a dark,cerebral,tortuous theme.

[808Lana]

Anne Heche looks rough in this. Btw, does anyone know where I might be able to watch this for free if possible, like online or somehting? Thanks!

[slmnsulaimon]

They are showing it right now on the IFC channel.

[jitangoburka]

The bath scene in this movie cause a big controversy when Nicole was naked and got passionate with a 10 yr old boy believed to be her husband's reincarnation in a bath tub. It was cut and re shoot. Till now the cut portion hasn't come out in the porn sites yet. It' gonna be a hit in porn clips.

[808Lana]

JITANGOBURKA, Cameron Bright, the boy actoir in this film Birth, said that he and Kidman shot the bath scene alone- he did it by himself, and she did it by herself. Plus he said they had flesh toned body suits onand weren't nude at all in that. I'm just repeating what he said.

[folladordeprostis]

@808Lana Even if is true they were naked together he will never said "I was naked with nicole"

[folladordeprostis]

@jitangoburka that kid lost his virginity with nicole

[DussinMyPih]

honestly, I've never heard of this movie, but I'd like to see it, it looks very interesting. I hope I can find it

[starmochieater09]

i wanna see this one

[EdwardvsJacobFan]

This movie was really creepy and just kept me wondering and wondering the whole time. However I looked on RottenTomatoes and the movie did not get great reviews. Why is that?

[TallDarkAndDashing]

Because critics thought it was perverted, because of the kiss scene and the bath tub scene.

[willZhatesU]

because it fucking is... female pedophilia is so fucking overlooked and tollerated.

[808Lana]

This looks so scary yet so interesting at the same time. I doubt they'd release a film that promotes female pedophilia, though. Anyway, have you ever heard of the film LOLITA with Jeremy Irons & Domonique Swain? Swain's character was 13 and Lolita is considered - and I quote- a "masterpiece".

[jitangoburka]

I saw an article in the Friend and Foe message board about how they have to re shoot the bath scene. It mentioned that Nicole was naked and passionate with the boy. I'll try to look for the article again. Maybe it was inaccurate. Or maybe they were told what to say after the controversy when Nicole was booed on some occasions in London.

[808Lana]

JIANGOBURKA, thanks for getting back at me. This thing is weird. I wonder why Cameron Bright gets involved in such controversial material. Do you ever wonder that? I mean, a ten year old boy reading such scripts and asking to do these parts? It just takes courage. I wonder what his personality is like sometimes. Weird. I bet they "were" naked together. Wow. Insane!

[pluto4847]

@808Lana

Who David Cameron? LOL

[808Lana]

@pluto4847 , hey:-) No, Cameron Bright..in the bath tub scene he shot with Nichole Kidman in this. I still haven't seen the movie. I found a free site to see this at but have been too occupied with other films to watch this one:-(

[folladordeprostis]

@808Lana Any man would love to be naked together with nicole,even a 10 year kid

[romaczech75]

This movie should have been nominated for multiple Oscars at the time. Seriously. At the very least:

Best Picture

Best Director - Jonathan Glazer

Best Actress - Kidman

Best Actor - Cameron Bright

Best Supporting Actress - Lauren Bacall

Best Screenplay

Best Editing

Best Cinematography

Best Art Direction

[Weedsterine]

FUCK! am looking for a movie of cameron bright, and i cant find it. it was a trailer.... he(cameron) looked through the window of his house and saw monkeys that looked like humans putting his mother into a car... and there where a luna park that seemed to be destroyed... anyboy knows this film?

[lolololgeisha]

no sorry but that sounds scary

[trinity31338]

Weedsterine:

look for Cameron Bright on IMDb, the list of movies he played in isn't long and I'm sure you can easily find the movie you're looking for from reading each plot.

[RobbyFrost1874]

the first time i saw this, i thought it was ok and moved kinda slow. the second time, it blew me away. the daring scenes, the acting and the unparelleled symbolism mark this film as one of the greats. Like most true art, i'm afraid it's brilliance wont be understood until years to come. very under rated. two thumbs up.

[jgrab1]

I understood it fine the first time. It's hardly a "difficult" film and what is "unparalleled symbolism," anyway? The problem is the last ten minutes, where we get a very prosaic explanation that falls flat as a pancake. No masterpiece that isn't understood but a stylish attempt at something different--till the last few scenes. Then they faced the problem everyone who has ever written this sort of thing faces--how to explain the inexplicable. They failed, but it was good fun till then.

[RobbyFrost1874]

I agree with your critic of the ending, but I really don't think it ruined the movie. It wasn't really about the boy, it was about anna and her evolving beyond her late husband. Of course he was faking. But if people focus on the twist that he was not really sean, their missing the point of the film. It's about the birth and change within us.

[rankokusan]

well said....so i am guessing the boy knew by the letters or so.....brilliant movie i love it

[ramboram03]

it was a very haunting movie ...

[ndebbiegirl]

this was actually a hauntingly good movie...

[mjay22]

It must've felt good for a lady in her 30s or 40s to have sex with boys under 13 isn't it?

[producermattpop]

Boys? There was just one. And they didn't have sex. And it wasn't a 13-year old boy, it was the spirit of her dead husband, and yes, this film actually makes you believe that. Therefore, her desire for him seems perfectly natural and moving. It was totally predictable that some people would be focusing only on this sensationalist idea of Nicole in bed with an under-age boy, but that says more about them than about this magnificent film.

[PutrescentSoul]

seems kind of weird but hey come on now.

we're talking about nicole kidman here.

[officialbdvideos]

I'm buying this movie just because Danny Huston was in it. I think he's very underrated.

[gizmobaba]

its a very strange concept for western audiences but this is very possible despite how weird it is , only ms.kidman could carry this role ...

[dedrawilliams]

no its not i love this movie ,people need to stop being closed minded.

[hitsumatsulover]

very difficult theme, I wonder if ths movie made any money, though I see the actors acted very well esp Nicole and the boy and the tone of the movie seems just right..the closing scene seemed disappointing but I suppose theres no way around it, is there?a bit doomed from the start, absurd maybe..

[joseriqueni]

amazing...

the last masterpiece of lauren bacall

[KettyWaysman]

love it!

[markheskin]

"Birth" still haunts me. I loved it! How should it have ended? What were the options?

[folladordeprostis]

@markheskin Anna don't marry joseph,wait till sean jr is 18 and marry him,he was really in love with her(sean jr)

[fleurgi]

@folladordeprostis actually her plan was to wait until sean was 21.

[bmplefour]

This film has fundamental error.

The question is if him knows the scenario writer or no.

The answer should come with other film. In the base of data of cinema. We said a base of data it should it has all the versions and if you become in their better form.

[momoneko]

Cool, I like this trailer, it is excellent, thank you for uploading it!
