some of this movie confused me I admit, and sometimes it took me a while (a short while!) to catch up with it. By that I mean, there were things I didn't always figure out right away, and I would be thinking, why? or what? or when? --- BUT then I stopped worrying and just went with it, and sat back and enjoyed it. And THEN I just got completely engrossed by all the actors and actresses. And I believed all of them. I thought these were real people, and I was so emotionally attached to them and involved. And at times, emotionally devastated by what they did or what happened to them. So in the end, when I walked out of the movie theater (I saw this at Two Boots in the East Village), I was actually a bit shaken up and feel disquieted, if that is the right word. It is actually an upsetting movie, and I mean that as a compliment. I could see it again and would like to so I could think more about these people and what they did and why.
