Title: Frustrating and Disturbing
Product review: I wanted to like this movie, I really did. It has some great moments, but the whole movie revolves around MT's dementia and it moves at an agonizing pace. After the first ten minutes you want to tell the director, "okay Maggie is getting old and her mental faculties are no longer 100% we get it, move on" but the movie continues to bludgeon you with it in almost every scene. Another issue I had was there were some attempts at cinematic imagery, that were unevenly applied. When combine those with the constant portrayal of MT's dementia it was very difficult to figure out what was supposed to be historical and what was the director attempting to be "artful". Great sets, good acting, mediocre cinematography, substandard plot and metering.
