I think this suffered a lot from having just read the book about a month ago, it really zaps a lot of narrative tension when you know where it's going with these ambiguously menacing scenes. But overall a good movie. I thought Gyllenhaal did an excellent job of converting an anxious interior monologue into a visual form and Coleman is great as usual.

It's a puzzling little film, in some ways it felt underwhelming and in others it was perfect--I found myself really charmed by the slow, almost wistful boredom that stalks many of the scenes. I'll have to sit on it to see how it ranks for me.washing machine wrote:Stranger than Paradise might make my list.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
