More on Swept Away
Description from Wikipedia:
Swept Away is a 2002 romantic comedy film directed by Guy Ritchie and starring Madonna, Adriano Giannini, and Bruce Greenwood. The film is a remake of the 1974 Italian film of the same name.
The movie was a commercial and critical failure, and did so badly in the United States that it was not released in theatres in the United Kingdom but went straight to video. Incensed by the critics' reaction, Madonna has sworn to never act in a movie again. The film was awarded five awards at the 2002 Golden Raspberry Awards:
* Worst Picture
* Worst Actress for Madonna
* Worst Screen Couple for Madonna and Giannini
* Worst Remake or Sequel
* Worst Director for Guy Ritchie
In addition, the film was nominated for Worst Screenplay (by Ritchie), and Giannini for Worst Actor. The film holds the distinction of being the first film to win both Worst Picture and Worst Remake or Sequel. However, in his otherwise negative review of the film, Slant Magazine critic Ed Gonzalez said: "Madonna gives her best performance since Abel Ferrara had her beaten to a pulp in his Dangerous Game."
