My least favourite Todd Haynes film is so grubbily photographed (by Christopher Blauvelt, Emma.) that it's annoying and distracting. There's some sort of Persona-like melding of Julianne Moore and Natalie Portman going on as the latter studies the former in order to play her in a TV movie. (Moore has been imprisoned for seducing a 13 year old boy whose now grown up with kids.) There's a lot of unresolved shit going on, and Portman is no saint either.
I was quite pleased with myself for identifying Michel Legrand's theme from The Go-Between used throughout.
Edited by Affonso Gonçalves. I was quite relieved when it was over.
