The CinePearl Take
The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover is a 1980s English film that blends crime, erotic and romantic drama — expect the pull of crime and its consequences and adult themes and intimate storytelling. Peter Greenaway directs and the script comes from Peter Greenaway. Ron Cook and Janet Henfrey are among the leads. Made in Netherlands, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring English-language films. Released in 1989, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 119 minutes, it is a comfortable evening's watch.
