I watched this movie yesterday. As soon as I left the theater,something quite unusual happened. Its content lost all of its grip onme, while its artistic brilliance stood out almost the more. How couldthat be? I thought about it and came to the conclusion that the storywas not convincing enough to hold itself up, at least not for me.
I would like to see this movie
