I've been meaning to introduce myself to Joe Swanberg. Perhaps this wasn't the best one to start out with, but if there's better films of his out there, he's certainly got promise. The first half of the film, which largely includes the mystery of the bone and the gun is excellent. I was really invested in it. The improvisation worked well with it too. Unfortunately, The film takes a massive shift in another direction and I just wasn't feeling it at all. The mystery is almost completely left behind. If that was the point, fair enough, but I thought it was a cheap move on Swanberg's part.
