Loved it.
I'm still digesting, and I think I will probably watch it again later this week.
Pretty complex.

And then there is the pterodactyl at the garden party from some background footage (from King Kong) they re used.
Brilliant story and a major achievement in film making.

(3,526 posts)There were no car chases, no multiple views of explosions in
slow motion, no nudity, no one getting shot or tortured,
no rapes. In fact, the only physical violence is Kane slapping
his second wife only once.
It wasn't even in color!!1
All it did was have five people telling the same story
over and over.
Boring!
