Splendid Isolation

Typically I adore films that do not waste artistic opportunities, but for me, I found my attention wandering often in this film. And that's unusual for me.

The story was unclear and the plot unengaging and slow.

The acting is phenomenal. The soundtrack powerful. The lighting,camera work,and setting were all done very mindfully.

I love all the TECHNIQUES used, but it was just TOO much technique for me and I think it distracted from the journey of the story. I need to enjoy the journey as much as the end.

After all of IF you can't engage and KEEP interest and make an audience feel invested.....a beautifully done last 5 minutes doesn't make up.

Still, it's the KIND of movie I appreciate.
