I remember liking this film more on first viewing many years ago. I still liked it, but maybe not as much. Some people called it slow-moving, I prefer thoughtful. Malkovich once said it was among his favorites, but perhaps he was just being contrary. The titular object. A Henry Moore statuette, seemed to me to be singularly ugly, an almost certainly deliberate irony. Oh, and for those who commented on the nude scene by Andie MacDowell, be advised that it wasn't her.
