I really don't, other than to say that this is an incredible piece of cinema history. It deserves more recognition than it's received. It should be a classic that everyone knows, front to back, and it should be rerun on TV like all classic movies are. (And it does deserve the "classic" title.) This is a movie that seems run of the mill low brow, but isn't. It seems simple and straightforward, but it's rather cerebral and brainy, and yes, you can feel the British sophistication in the finished product, and we the audience are better for having experienced it. Some may say that pacing's a bit slow, and I'll be fair, I can see that. At first, it doesn't quite grab you, or at least it's not evident at first. But the story is so engrossing and each scene immerses you deeply into the film, that you lose track of time, and you eagerly await each new scene. You cannot help it, you're absolutely compelled to watch this film. After a bit of time, you don't even notice the pace, and when you look at the finished product in it's entirety, you see that the pace was perfect and fit so well. This was incredibly well made and it shows. And then the performances... an absolutely wonderful cast. Each actor and actress perfect for their respective roles, and they sell it so well, you forget that you're watching Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson. You see Mike and Grace, you see them as real people, with real emotional wounds, and when you take a step back and see that it is Branagh and Thompson, you're even more impressed. Andy Garcia is a terrific actor, and a bit underused in this film, but...(and this is a testament to the talented abilities of Branagh), he's utilized well. His few moments have such a tremendous impact, and his performance so powerful, that if he had been given more screentime, he could've easily stolen the show in many a scene. Robin Williams...his performance was partially a negative for me. His acting? Oh so good. It was great to see him play a serious role that wasn't a sicko (One Hour Photo) or an insane goofball (Er...just pick a movie, lol), and he handled it well. My only problem with it was the excessive and gratuitous profanity. Now, don't think of me as a prude, because I do understand that some art in this form does call for such language, and in certain parts of this movie it was used and correctly, but past a certain point, his profanity actually took some of the class out of it and dragged the whole thing down a bit. But, even with that, I can't knock the film down a point, nor his performance. One thing about this film is that it showed me that Branagh is not afraid to share the limelight with his costars. Each and every one of them had the chance to steal the show and make us forget about the main characters or even the story and have it turn back into a run of the mill Hollywood flick, but there was enough willpower in those actors, and the right amount of command out of Branagh to rein it in and tie it all together in a beautiful movie that is simply stunning. And I must say that Branagh (Scottish) and Thompson (British) pulled off their American accents almost flawlessly. One or two brief seconds you hear just a bit of it slipping through, but 99% of the time they have it down perfect. So much so that if you were to see this movie first, before ever knowing who they are, you'd have thought they were 100% US born and raised. The fact that they could use different accents and do it all so well further proves that their talent is not only incredible, it should be praised. Then you get into the story, the acting, and the directing? Overwhelming. I thought the black and white for the flashbacks was a nice touch. It not only helped people differentiate between the two timelines, but it added a bit of class to an otherwise already beautiful set of scenes. They were simply gorgeous and I feel that color would've cheapened them. Would've made them the same as any other film out there. The ending scene (which I won't spoil) is beautiful and heartfelt and surprising in a movie that's mostly dark for the bulk of it's run. I don't know how better I can say it than I already have, but I must recommend it, at the very least. This is a gem that should be shared with everyone. This is a film of great substance and it's simply wonderful. A solid A+ for me. EDIT: This was posted over a year ago, but I still stand by it. I ordered this version, to be exact: Dead Again Review: Best 90s mystery detective thriller from Kenneth Branagh. - Great film from Kenneth Branagh. Very Hitchcock style. Great cast, great story. Good seeing Robin Williams in this movie. RIP Robin Williams. I remember watching it on VHS with the rent a video dog commercial from paramount pictures. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00BTYJYP8 | | Actors | Andy Garcia, Emma Thompson, Kenneth Branagh | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 | | Best Sellers Rank | #201,091 in Movies & TV ( See Top 100 in Movies & TV ) #149,544 in DVD | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (779) | | Director | Kenneth Branagh | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Language | English (Dolby Digital 5.1) | | Media Format | Black & White, Color, Dolby, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Widescreen | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 0.7 x 7.5 x 5.4 inches; 0.01 ounces | | Release date | May 21, 2013 | | Run time | 1 hour and 47 minutes | | Studio | WarnerBrothers | | Subtitles: | English | ## Product Details - **Color:** Unknown - **Contributor:** Andy Garcia, Emma Thompson, Kenneth Branagh - **Format:** Black & White, Color, Dolby, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Widescreen - **Language:** English, French - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 47 minutes ## Images ![Dead Again (1991) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91KoywxWc6L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Experince Not To Be Missed *by J***N on August 30, 2010* I don't know where to begin.

I ordered this version, to be exact: Dead Again ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best 90s mystery detective thriller from Kenneth Branagh. *by A***R on March 27, 2025* Great film from Kenneth Branagh. Very Hitchcock style. Great cast, great story. Good seeing Robin Williams in this movie. RIP Robin Williams. I remember watching it on VHS with the rent a video dog commercial from paramount pictures. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ "...if fate works at all, it works because people think that THIS TIME, it isn't going to happen!" *by A***N on February 18, 2011* Directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh, DEAD AGAIN is an excellent neo-noir with a supernatural gender-bending twist. He and Emma Thompson play two roles: a contemporary P.I. and the woman with amnesia that he's helping, plus in 1947, a composer exile from Nazi Germany and his musician wife. In this nicely done b&w earlier tale, Branagh is sentenced to die for murdering Thompson, but may not have killed her. These past lives and the pair's previous connection emerges only when Derek Jacobi hypnotizes them in the modern story. It's a very interesting movie, has a unique resolution and is totally worth seeing. Parenthetical number preceding title is a 1 to 10 imdb viewer poll rating.
