Wow. Just saw this film on cable and couldn't stop watching it. So refreshing. And brilliantly funny. A well observed, insightful farce. Like something Oscar Wilde would have written if he were alive today. Just so clever! And very well directed, the director letting the mostly unknown actors who all do a wonderful job (with the Barbara character a particular standout) just do their thing, though the camera does move at just the right moments, and the framing and editing and what have you is impeccable. But it's the writing that stands out. Of course it's an exaggeration for effect, but, I mean, it's such an obvious idea, it's been there forever-- what's happening to us in the modern world-- and this Salwen guy could see it. Anyway, Just thought I'd put it out there. Anyway, if you're into smart comedies that aren't like anything you've seen before, then see this movie if you get the chance.
