Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
