the tv announcer who introduce this late one saturday night say it should have win oscar . quite a statement for a film i would never hear of . though why i should have take any notice of a tv announcer and i do not know . in the event and say announcer be talk tripe . it a dreary and miserable movie that leave a bad taste in the mouth . i couldn not get on with hoskins awful burr ming gum accent . can not see any advantage in it be set in the midland anyway . unresolved thread abound . and i wouldn not normally mind this but half of them make no sense . and what about when hoskins say he will pick felicia up from outside her b and b although she never tell him where exactly she be stay . or her buying into the funeral that clearly never take place ( and where be she during those day . ) clumbsy and ill think through bit of business if you ask me . it a thriller without thrill . it full of pretentious bit of business . it depress . didn not like it . think it be rubbish . wouldn not recommend it . nuff say .
