Despondent, depressed and feeling guilty over hiring a hit-man to kill her lover, she re-imagines her life as ideally as she can. This leads to the over-the-top wooden acting and some of the really outlandish character choices.<br /><br />I don't disagree with your Alfindeolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06607821449627578844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3718665019874291268.post-32304152996023740252010-01-28T01:58:14.139-06:002010-01-28T01:58:14.139-06:00I can see where you are coming from in many of you...I can see where you are coming from in many of your criticisms but you have to keep in mind that these were all intentional decisions. You have to keep in mind that the bulk of this movie is meant to be either a dream sequence or a daydream. <br /><br />I can agree with you about the pacing though, it is especially hard because the movie doesn't totally make sense.Feyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13511696767900696610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3718665019874291268.post-70931442427253214352010-01-27T23:01:50.265-06:002010-01-27T23:01:50.265-06:00I just thought it was sad that such an interesting...I just thought it was sad that such an interesting plot (2 hours in) was lost because of the PAINFULLY slow pace. Because I admit that after a couple hours it did pique my interest. But I shouldn't have had to want to turn it off before that. Even after that, when it was a bit more interesting, it was still extremely slow paced, no matter the intentions.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03459878974052134210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3718665019874291268.post-20570374452234525292010-01-27T19:36:34.804-06:002010-01-27T19:36:34.804-06:00The robotic quality of the acting was intentional....The robotic quality of the acting was intentional. Up until the audition scene, I truly wondered why the actors were so flat but it was all an illusion. David Lynch instructed his actors to act like that.Castorhttp://www.anomalousmaterial.com/moviesnoreply@blogger.com
