Amazon.com:
Richard Gere is pretty convincing as a severe manic-depressive whose episodes of euphoria sometimes find him dancing on a two-by-four far above the street or climbing onstage during a symphony performance to "conduct" the orchestra. When the pendulum swings the other way, he is practically catatonic. As a character study, this film by Mike Figgis (Leaving Las Vegas) has its truly compelling moments, but Mr. Jones isn't just a character study. Inexplicably, Figgis ushers in a preposterous romance between this poor fellow and his psychiatrist (Lena Olin), a relationship that is supposed to raise interesting ethical and dramatic issues. All it does is make one wonder what the devil the doctor is thinking of, and why Figgis felt it necessary to go down this lose-lose path. With Delroy Lindo in a nice part as a sympathetic construction worker who tries to help Gere's character. --Tom Keogh

Customer Reviews: Average Rating:

Rating : - textbook case
'Mr. Jones' is the weak title for an otherwise excellent and intelligent movie. It depicts Jones as an absolutely classic case of severe bipolar disorder--manic-depression syndrome. Jones, as a carpenter, goes through all the ecstatic highs and abysmal lows characteristic of his condition. I especially like it when he gets 'moving' with the rhythm of the hammers singing in his head. He's feeling no pain, no fear which, of course, can be lethal. He perches precariously on the roof of a tall house, arms held out over the precipice, in what may be an effort to fly like a bird. At other times he's in total misery, weeping and drowning in guilt that crushes entire worlds.

Remarkably...or not so remarkably...Jones beautiful psychiatrist falls in love with Jones, which is totally outside the boudaries of ethical behavior. This, too, however, is textbook and charachteristic. Bipolar people tend to be sexually attractive. When in hypomanic states their eyes glow, their bodies move and they are wonderfully self-confident. The world is their oyster and sometimes it really is.

Ron Braithwaite author of novels--"Skull Rack" and "Hummingbird God"--on the Spanish Conquest of America
