movie review - Happiness
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-eight years and a million words
Sydney, 2000.02.15
This is a bleak affair about a family of three sisters and the various people floating around them. As the title suggests, the characters are miserable, and many of their deeds are desperate if not outright horrible. The pace is a touch slow, but there are several points where this movie's got your utter attention as it inexorably glides towards one terrible conclusion or another.
Recommended.
