at first i have the reaction a lot of people leave with after see this represent that shot of fat people sunbathe and etc be cheap shot in a way . ok so he do diane arbus meet . . . whatever . . . but it wasn not long before i realize that this wasn not be do in a dehumanizing way and a the image unfold i felt that the problem be entirely the audience represent we be condition by hollywood and also movie from just about everywhere actually to feel that to watch people above a certain age behave in a sexual way be something unseemly and something that ought not to be show . if this be all the film offer it would be a great deal . however and the story of the woman with the abusive boyfriend and his drunk friend really hit like a ton of brick represent very eloquent storytelling and incredible performance and and to think the scene be improvise . that blonde guy be a genius actor . finally i want to contradict those who say this film be all about how pathetic all these people be . the old man who be on the make with the woman who finally dance for him be completely an a ok character that break that mold and so do not oversimplify the film by overlook him . yes his dog get kill . this ain not a rosy picture of the world but it not . . . completely hopeless . anyway i felt really grateful to the filmmaker for make such a beautiful film all in all . i wouldn not say each of the thread be as strong a the strong and but i say this movie basically kick as and would highly recommend it . . .
