I watched this film about two months ago. It really is a brilliant film but like one reviewer said, often annoyingly incomprehensible. It is not the film's massive ambition, but rather it's attempt to tackle a subject so complex in a two hour movie. I don't know whether it is a compliment or a complaint over the pacing, but watching this film did feel like seeing someone's entire life unfold right before my eyes. It is absolutely spell-binding, yes, but it's equally frustrating as well. And damn near impossible to properly review.
