Heh.
I think I enjoyed the film overall. I admit I watched it because I like Bjork, and I think she acquitted herself well in her own way. I did have a lump in my throat and an angry adrenaline rush when the trapdoor opened...

Yup.
It's one of those "big subject" films like Elephant that take this askance approach. It's nice not to have to stare down the barrel of a loaded LIfe of David Gale, but a little slicing and dicing would have been nice to make the film a little leaner and more explicit. LIke the old man said, "Take a rock and carve away anything that isn't walrus". Hope somebody gets that.
