CGiii Comment

A cocaine-fuelled dialogue that will, mercilessly, cling to your tits until you are screaming in pain.

Aristarain is obviously a director who doesn't like silence - his characters talk ceaselessly - making this an arduous task to sit through.

There is no direction, no cinematography - nothing - it comes over as a filmed theatre piece and that is precisely where it should have remained - in the theatre - small, intimate with a little audience.

Too long. Too noisy.
