I like the fact that you are prepared to defend your views to the death!! I did watch the film and found myself lulled by it, it seemed to go on for a long time and I was waiting for "something" to happen. Given that I found myself iking the film although I don't know why. I am glad that is it one I watched until the end. (Partly as I wanted to see Mr Rush naked, but that is another story!) So I don't really have a view on its merits, not usual for me as I either love or hate films.
anyway, maybe you and I should go out for a drink and a valium sometime.!! -

You've really thought this out.
When is your new book on film criticism coming out?

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But there is no need to blatantly bash a film, just because YOU didn't find it appealing or it didn't live up to your expectations.
For me, it was an incredibly powerful film, and I absolutelty loved it, even though it's not the type of film that I usually go for. Plus, I thought the acting was amazing; so natural and realistic. I loved the complexity of the film itself and the entangled lives of the characters. I found the whole film fascinating. Very unique. As I said, not a film I would usually see myself enjoying, but I was pleasantly surprisedI was hooked.
It's a Geoffrey Rush thing, you wouldn't understand! -

max 78 - its called anti-narrative you idiot.
Also I am baffled to how its homophobic and your comment on how it is only the gay guy who is sad and alone baffles me, because i was under the impression that Geoffrey Rush's character didnt have a fairytale happy ending and nor did Rachel Blakes and i feel it goes with out saying, but i will say it anyway, that Barbara Hershys ending wasnt happy. So it was infact two couples that were left happy then not ever straight character.
Also i feel your comment about how you have no time for someone who likes a film you dont pathetic and pretentious.
