70It's the kind of movie you watch on a rainy Saturday night with a glass of wine and a fire crackling in the fireplace. It's a film that's meant to be contemplated, but not discussed. And it's all about what happens when you take the easy way out.
-
50Arthouse audiences who welcome challenging material will find sustenance in film's fractured narrative and unflinching characterizations.
