I just finished watching this movie and all I have to say is stunning. It has these moments of such intensity and awkwardness that you feel as if you're intruding on the intimate moments of a very neurotic family. There were a few times during the film that I felt as if I was watching a play, the scenes felt claustrophobic with all the emotionally charged space between the cast and their intense and dynamic relations to each other. I highly recommend this film for any one who enjoys dark comedy/dramas that are sometimes challenging to watch that deals with the sometimes intense and overwhelming dynamics that constitutes familiar relations. The cast is brilliant with a superb performance by Nicole Kidman. Over all the film left me hungry for more, and I will be sure to rent "The Squid & The Whale" which was the director's first film.
