It's Hard To See A Film One Time And Really "get It," And Write Fully And Intelligently About It. That's A Review. That's Not Film Criticism. And There's So Many Expectations Involved, Too. You're Going In To See The Latest Martin Scorsese Or Stanley Kubrick Film, You Really Have High Hopes, And You Can't Help But Find That It's Not Exactly What You Had In Your Head Going In. Until You Can Watch It Again, You Can't Accept The Work For What It Intends To Be. It Takes At Least A Second Viewing.
