I'm not really sure what attracted me to this film, but once I started watching it I couldn't stop. Perhaps it was the dreariness of the setting, or the obnoxiousness of the dialog, but I guess the main reason I watched was to see if a plot ever realy developed. I kept hoping that something of significance would eventually happen, but it really never did.
The characters are quirky and shallow. You don't know much more about them than when the film began. The older mother kept asking ... Read More

This is NOT an action thriller. It is quiet and studied.
But it's not Disney either: it stares hard into life's
awkward joys and painful times. This is a beautiful
psychological drama
about the transitional crises at all times of life,
and I got a surprising existential epiphany from it.
(about the two basic things you need to get on in life..
..see if you can find the commonalities!)
Pre-teen angst, young teen, widowed, and end-of-life concerns,
in a pretty, ... Read More
