I only sat through this film because of the reviews it had gotten, so I kept waiting for it to get better. It didn't happen.

After watching this I can't help feeling conned. It's like the old fairytale by H.C. Andersen 'the emperors new clothes'. No-one will admit to no understanding this pastiche of an art movie.

Still, I am a little optimistic, after all this film IS different from other mainstream American movies. Only it takes time to learn to make deep movies European style. You need to risk more and have a stronger message.

USA is a strange place, where your name can make you president, perhaps your name can also make you a director.
