Reviews

Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Michelle Ridley The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
