The dialogue is pretentious (actually pretentious, not how many just throw the word around lackadaisically). The characters are not characters, but rather caricatures. Nobody is remotely likeable, nor relatable, because the dialogue is pretentious and they are all caricatures. People might have liked the “message” back then, the banality and frustration of a seemingly perfect suburban life, but its message is actually trite and stupid and tone deaf. It’s a terrible movie with terrible themes with an actor who turned out to be a terrible person. The End.
Right there with “Crash”, another utterly tone deaf film with a hackneyed plot, for how retarded the Oscars can be.
