Admirable film.

A different way of telling a story

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Satire about the miseries of a bunch of wannabe actors and celebrities, filled with increasingly dark humor and some funny one-liners. Its aesthetic choices and particularly its score are surprising at first because they are very reminiscent of a thriller, but at the end I found them to work very well by contrast and matched the darkness at the core of the story. All in all, quite inspired and enjoyable.
