i must have seen a different film!!
A brilliant film that helped define a genre
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
