This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
