Hmm. I really wasn't that interested in this movie, initially, but I figured since it was one of the big Academy Award nominees this past year, I should probably look into it. It turned out to be not nearly as uninteresting as I thought it was going to be. It meandered all over the place and didn't ever really seem to resolve anything, but it was somehow interesting to watch and satisfying at the end. That's pretty impressive, to have an unresolved meandering story that's still interesting and satisfying. (Note how I took up more room in this review by just like repeating my entire last sentence.) I'm not sure who I'd recommend it to because I'm not sure who would enjoy it, but if you're into sort of meandering dramas, you'll probably really like this.Memorable quote:
