If someone (well probably only a woman would relate) has EVER been depressed or inclined to suicide - they SHOULD NOT WATCH this movie!!!!! It was clever that it threaded three different times and connected three un-connected women -but that is where my praise ends!!! It was so depressing that I re-contemplated suicide (which I hadn't for quite some time. I bought it because I remember it winning all sorts of awards and didn't at all remember the plot -but also loved the ALL STAR cast! I threw it away so no one else wuld have to be subjected to such a depressing movie!
Absolutely one of the best movies I've seen. There are 3 stories of troubled women interwoven in the fabric of this story, each one as engrossing as the other two. And while you are not certain if they are related in some way, you will be haunted by the similarity between them. The twist at the end keeps you engaged if not totally depressed. Loved it!
This film basically is about 3 boring suicidal lesbians from three different generations with inter-connected lives. Each has their own minor problems which make them whiny and discouraged. The backgrounds in this film are hideous, as they use bland and dreary backdrops for every scene; thus adding to the misery of having to watch to the viewer.
My family treats this movie as a gag gift, as we've never opened the wrapping off the bought tape. We rented this movie once and that was enough for us to learn our lesson. We now sneakily give this movie as a gag once a year at Christmas. Who ever receives it is generally humorously unhappy. We loath this movie with fiery passions! ENJOY!
