Jeff Shannon in the editorial review really does justice to this movie in his 3 paragraphs.the "Reviewer: A viewer from Miami, Florida" misses the point. you don't compare this movie to "reality" to validate its value--you don't do that with most art/holywood movies either.the big strength of this movie is its artistic representation of what happens in real life: how one entraps onself in a given situation and then meaning is generated anew. this is a very human(istic) characteristic present throughout our history.i am retaining 1/2 of a star for the not so smooth technical realization of this great movie. as for the eroticism lable slaped throughout you may well ignore it.
