a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
