Very good!

This was really something else. I feel as though I should write more than just a reactionary few lines about it but I don't have the time or patience to slug it out just now. Perhaps I'll write something longer sometime in the future. This is an excellent, non-linear and unorthodox examination of Hollywood (although there are no doubt other interpretations). It is steeped in false promise and bitterness, from the point of view of someone who it didn't quite work out for. Some of this is very bleak and moving. The Opera scene is perhaps one of the most emotive things I have seen recently. Excellent movie. Nothing not to like!
