MOVIE REVIEW Cairo Time Rating: ★★★★☆ The wife of a diplomat awaits her husband’s arrival for their vacation in Cairo, when an unexpected attraction develops. This is a film you must take the time to watch. It has a slower pace, but it’s purposefully done so to really indulge in this story, the setting, and the characters. With TV shows changing their shots every 3 seconds, and films always needing action to maintain the interest of the audience — this is a refreshing film away from all that, and captivating in the soothing essence of what this film carries. Shot on location, it’s great getting to explore Cairo through this film. Patricia Clarkson and Alexander Siddig are remarkable together, and through their subdued performances - there’s so much more told in what’s not said. Ruba Nadda does a wonderful job in writing and directing a beautiful film.
