I agree that Leigh is a skilled and unafraid filmmaker, and the screenplay is (mostly) excellent, but this film didn&#39;t succeed as it intended to. Rather than feeling poetic and melancholy, it ended up feeling apathetic. And that monologue towards the end from the first elderly man went on for a long time.<br /><br />I do look forward to Leigh&#39;s next feature that hopefully will capitalize on what she did well here.Jason Reedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16681721037686345260noreply@blogger.com
