How sad is this?

Good concept, poorly executed.

Excellent adaptation.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Shorts have to tell their story with only a fraction of the time a full length movie has, this one succeeds. The characters are made three dimensional, a story is told, there is nudity, comedy and gore as well as social commentary. I took a point away because the scene with the band was unnecessary and added nothing to the movie. Also the detective ordered his steak rare and it was well done.
