ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

cableaddict I just saw this remarkable, quirky little film on the IFC.I can understand how many gave it only one star. some people need lots of crude humor, or car crashes and buildings blowing up. What can you do?This film is VERY understated. However, it's not boring. None of that Merchant Ivory, "molasses in winter" kind of pacing. If you give it a chance, it sucks you in and takes you on a wonderful little ride inside the protagonist's head.Most indie film make me run for cover, but this is an exception, and an exceptional film, IMO.I can't recommend it highly enough.

RBNY I viewed this film at the Hamptons Film Festival. I found it to be enjoyable and quite interesting. The ending is not predictable and is quite thought provoking.It is the tale of a writer who seems to have a block in completing his second novel and in the mean time goes through a journey of self awareness.I found Fisher Stevens, Sam Manning, to have finally found a character thought allowed him to stretch his skills. He is definitely an underused actor.
