Review

i’ve been wanting to watch this one for a long time because it looked good, criterion made the dvd for it, and because it’s gotten good reviews. it certainly had style and it felt like it was going somewhere and that there was going to be an emotional connection somewhere along the line, but i never connected with it. from a cinematography perspective it was interesting, the characters were odd, but overall it just didn’t do it for me. listened to some of the commentary hoping for insight and that led nowhere. very similar, in its feel and effect, to gummo.
