Great movie, although deathly slow at times.

Rating: 8/10 (16 November 1998)

My girlfriend had to talk me into seeing this one, and I'm glad she did. The movie was much better than I expected, although I initially was put off by the three hour running time. Well written and acted, although it had more pregnant pauses than a yard full of hesitant rabbits. I often felt like walking up to the actors and yelling, "Say it! Say it!" Lots of shots of people looking into each other's eyes. Nevertheless, a good flick.
