Agreed. + I felt like there was a bit more going on in it to make it a better overall film, tho not a funnier comedy.
Yes, I'd say so: beautifully made, darkly twisted and sentimental at the same time. (And then, let some time pass & watch Synecdoche, New York for pure, hardcore insanity.)
Most of the others on ShannonsMovies's list, I'm sorry to say, are overrated recent flicks, IMO.
