Now I know how someone with severe cataracts and almost deaf must interact with the world.
While the script was bad in so many ways, the viewing and sound were worse. Shot through a turd filter, so no highlights or shadows, it would have been better as a black and white so there might have been the possibility of contrast.
The sound was muddled, the dialogue underwhelming in volume (and muddled), and overall as clear as a baby's vomit.
It's a disaster on so many levels.
Watch the Rod Steiger version. At least you could see it and hear it without feeling like a special ed class made a movie and did the shooting and sound.

For a low budget independent film, this hits all the good marks. Photography, sound, and script are excellent. Well-developed characters.
I've lived in areas such as in this film and the settings and people are accurately depicted. Sad, lonely, buckets of despair, with a glimmer of progress towards love.
Well worth a watch.

Flat characters, subpar acting, and just when you think it might get better it descends down the elevator to clichés and more subpar acting.
What could have been a worthy adaptation of Dick fails in a trite screenplay and production.
Disappointing at best I'm glad I spent no money to watch this time dragger.
