there be and a many review have observe and a strong dark streak to this movie . the director it most recall to me be john landis ( yeah and go ahead and howl about what a peasant i be ) . arcand have the gift of explore frivolous thing in a bleak and gray kind of way and then turn round and explore the horror of life with a lighthearted touch . the cast be and without exception and above average . thomas gibson and a david and be outstanding a the moody and self deceptive center around whom the rest of the character revolve . he talk a good nihilist and but his action reflect more love in his character than he be willing to acknowledge . gibson be already a strong and subtle actor in 1993. it be difficult to look at him and see greg montgomery and let alone agent hotchner of criminal mind . perhaps not the best scene and but the one i enjoy most and my rewind scene and be the section where candy be expect a visitor and and one uninvited person after another show up at the door . a candy interpersonal environment swing far and far out of control and david just grow bouncy and perky and and more enthusiastic and like a gaunt gen x tigger .
