Beautiful Film

Rating: 9/10 (27 September 2000)

This film does an excellent job of incorporating seemingly disparate elements and in doing so succeeds in making a funny, creepy film that works simultaneously as a social satire and as an intriguing character study. Combining wonderful cinematography, a witty and succinct script, and a compelling performance by Bale, this movie has secured itself a spot on my list of favorite films. Not for everyone, but if you're of a certain ilk, this movie will blow you away.
