Poster of Ondine

Ondine

Drama, Mystery, Romance

Director: Neil Jordan

Release Date: March 5, 2010

Where to Watch

Ondine lacks the true courage of magical realism as embodied by Spanish directors such as Guillermo del Toro and rushes headlong into a rational explanation abandoning any melancholy hope for trite happy ending. The camera work abruptly changes from beautiful, mystical, fairy tale twinkles to gritty realism noir. A disappointing miss.
