The initial presentation of the protagonist for me laid no basis at all for his later accomplishments. The view of Newfoundland is very unpleasant - I hate to think it's that bleak. though I have no personal knowledge of the place.
It's hard for me to believe that a newspaper like the one portrayed could possibly afford all that staff and support an absentee owner too. The sea part of the film contained not one but two highly improbable survivals from disastrous situations. Sorry to see all that talent wasted.
I found "The Widow of St. Pierre" (I hope I have the title of the Binoche film right) a lot more interesting and believable about the same neighborhood.

No motivation, absurd hypothesis. I'm sorry to see Wiliam H Macy involved in trash like this. If he didn't use a body double in the nude scenes, I hope he got some kind of kick out of them.
Do you really believe that bad luck is involved in losing money in Las Vegas? That luck is contagious, so that standing beside an unlucky person can affect your bets or the sequence of cards in blackjack? Do you really believe a Nevada Casino lets anyone run up a debt of $150,000? That they would beat up a winner who did nothing more than shoot craps with the house's dice? If you can answer yes to any of the questions, Nevada is looking for YOU!
