i like julia stiles...
What's inthe human psychi besdies thoguhts of billpayments, and a half-made grocery list? Is there any answer to the question 'who am I?' beyond "I am".
The performances are strong but the story...well...I think it should stay a play...
why would you get upset because a maid broke your lamp...HELLO WE ARE HUMAN..EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES"
Disappointing. This had all the right elements. David Mamet. William H. Macy. A depraved man, seedy underworld, and a heavy dose of fate. It had flashes of brilliance and didn't blink at pushing the envelope. Too bad it was in service of a contrived catharsis and flat philosophy.
un film avec certain passage interessant mais qui manque de profondeur.Ca pourait etre interessant de retravailer l'histoire un peu...entouka sa dure pas longtemps
Not what I was expecting at all. William H Macy does an amazing job. Highly recommended!
I want to see purely on the basis it has William H. Macy in it..

edmond....haha that just reminded me of the incredibles..hehe "EDNA MODE!!! xD"

hmm good cast william h macy is the one from pleasantville isnt he> and julia stiles too
Either too dull or too depressing or too morbid...I'm not quite sure.
My heart is a twitter at the horrible things that the director of "Re-Animator" will do to Julia Stiles
this is such a f**ked up movie!! At first I did not think much of it, but the more I thought about it after, the more I liked it.
