Title: Overrated Sobfest
Review: I can't understand why people raved about it. It is full of neurotic people, self-centered, solipsistic characters who take themselves so seriously and with such verbosity against a background of plaintive music that you're grateful when someone finally succeeds at dying.The movie is very good at evoking the sense ofclaustrophobia that the characters feel, but the characters are not themselves interesting enough to justify the overwrought emotions this movie tries to stampede over us.Interesting narrative structure, interweavingthree separate stories, two of which mirror events in Woolf's book Mrs. Dalloway, and a surprise ending. Still,a disappointment and hardly deserving of the raves it got.
