spoiler throughout represent i know i would love hysterical blindness and recently have a chance to see it . i like it even more then expect . a brilliant movie and a job well do from the whole cast . pretty much everyone know the plot but . i will say watch this movie and i be strike with how much be get so right . i love character study and love independent film because their often not afraid to take chance a be many and more mainstream movie . they be often more accurate a well . everyone in this movie exist somewhere in this world . movie that capture the humanness of everyday people and environment and deserve kudos because it be not often when that happen . hysterical blindness could function a a very long advertisement to someone about the negative of the bar scene and the movie be almost emotionally brutal in the way it pick up the quiet weariness some of these people feel . the writing be just superb and i really wish this have be a big screen release and be sure a few oscar would have be pick up along the way . all the performer be outstanding . uma thurman be good then in the kill bill movie ( yes and it true ) and gena rowlands and juliette lewis be outstanding . oh how i adore the gentle dreamer nick . ( play brilliantly by ben gazzara ) . thurman play down of her look still do not disguise the fact that she be a beautiful woman but that do not and for me and lessen the believability one bit . a many know and the fact that one be extremely goodlooking do not mean they can not experience emotional pain in relationship . i find not one false note in this movie and i find hysterical blindness to be just incredible . this be probably one of the most honest movie about suburban single life i have ever see and it actually make the movie single look like a light rom com . i be always strike by movie that be like a little ( or big ) slice of life . in that regard and hysterical blindness be at the top of the heap . my rating be positive .
