At home.

Journal[]

Phew. Depressing, in many many ways, not least of all because it was so bleak without seeming to aim for anything other than a straightforward portrayal of the complexity of life, in this case for two misfits in The West during the 60s/70s.

It seemed to be meandering and aimless for most of it, I couldn't understand what Heath Ledger was saying half the time, and there was neither an underlying moral nor enjoyment in the experience, so I can't tell whether it was a success or not.

Rating[]

Almost reluctant to try and pin it down, seems too simplistic to do so and I don't want to be a slave to this system. But 1 I guess.
