Gwen Sampe appears all too briefly in this strangely engaging movie. She is a brilliant musician and it would be great to see and hear her in other movies.
Centering on a highly original take on same sex relationships, this is a flawed but subtly subversive film. It could have benefited from far more development and elaboration and has an unfinished feeling.
The most singly frustrating aspect of the movie is the under-use of a world class musician. Sampe is an artist of the highest integrity, who currently lives and performs in Paris. The fact that she is not world-famous is because all of her work is fearlessly uncompromising and has never sold out to facile commercialism.
"My Wife" should be treasured for framing an all too brief glimpse of the incomparable Sampe at work.
