CGiii Comment

Despite an unnecessary first minute...this is utter brilliance!

The dialogue goes from the sublime to the tragic, from the ridiculous to outright cruelty, from dark to darkly funny...

Getting rid of that first minute...would render this as a bona fide mini-masterpiece.


Watch...

 

The(ir) Blurb...
