Um, look. This film didn't win any awards whatsoever. But I'd contend that Kirsten Dunst is so good in it she should have been Oscar and BAFTA-nominated, not to mention the Greek Shipping Awards 2006 finalist. Crowe and editor David Moritz keep her on screen a lot (not that Bloom isn't fine), despite the fact that our headmaster told us we shouldn't use the words got, bit and lot.
If any more evidence were needed that Dunst's character is Miss Kubelik, she even does that same rotation of the wrist on board the plane as MacLaine does in the elevator.
OK you could argue the film is overlong but what are you going to cut? Susan Sarandon tap dancing? Freebird? Journey through the South? It's all essential, so fuck off everyone.
I was amused to see that the kids' education film about blowing up a house is real.
Has the usual care taken in its soundtrack selection. It's wonderful.
