made me cry

Rating: Null/10 (16 August 2004)

I agree with the previous comments. This is a fine film with only a few weak spots (that large rodent was a hamster?? How long ago was it supposed to have died?). Many visual surprises, and artful arrangements both poignant and comedic. All scenes work on more than one level, and that's how I know the movie is in the hands of an intelligent director, a master cameraman and a gifted editor. From watching Zach's wonderful, supremely funny performances in "Scrubs", and from scenes in the trailer (e.g. the wallpaper/shirt scene), I was not expecting to cry, and didn't take any Kleenex in with me. Warning: if you've ever had any issues with either of your parents, take Kleenex.
