satirical view of a certain layer of the American society

Rating: 8/10 (17 April 2012)

A brilliant movie whose value and subtle humour become apparent on the second viewing. One would want to re-watch it as many times as one can. Would you recognize yourself in one of the characters? You may: blue collar, white collar - the middle class is there, the writer, however, took a precaution and didn't include a certain common type of character in this film. It is a writer's film, indeed, the story is self-sufficient and was AFIK published as a book some time after the movie hit the screens. Nevertheless, the cast is quite good with the cinematography being on the par with it. I don't own any stake in the movie and review it only because appreciate it greatly.
