My God, what an utterly depressing movie. It takes something out of you to watch this because it's so raw.

A) The movie begins slowly examining some everyday human pitfalls. All of them based on either addiction or obsession. Once that is detailed we move on to the next part.

B) You see each character offered a glimmer of hope and a way out of what consumes them.

C) Then you see a turn in events, the path blocked.

D) Then it's a rollercoaster, you're kept on the brink of hope for a while but it's ultimately a double dip and you then keep getting dragged down.

E) Then the end comes in sight, you get nailed down and you take it, you're not spared anything, it rips into you emotionally.

I've not seen a movie like it, art at some of it's finest.

It hasn't aged well but this isn't one I'll forget, nor is it one I'll put myself through again. Watch with care.

8/10

Yeah buddy that movie is really messed up and in some unfortunate cases so realistic. I recall seeing this in college and afterwards I took a long walk around campus thinking what the f*ck? For me, the craziest storyline was the mother and her diet pills/red dress fantasy. As you said, its not an uplifter, so for those looking for happy-happy-joy-joy flick, this one isn't for you.
