Better Than Sex (2000, AUS/FRA) C-80m. *** D: Jonathan Teplitzky. Starring David Wenham, Susie Porter, Catherine McClements, Kris McQuade, Simon Bossell. A bit slight but intelligently observed sex comedy about Wenham and Porter, who agree on a brief fling, as Wenham will leave the country in three days. What follows is a nicely commented examination of a budding relationship that is absolutely true to life. Wenham had a key role, of course, in THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING (2003). Written by the director.
