Query: To Be Avoided

Even though I am an longstanding afficionado of off-beat independent films, this one was really a major disappointment. In fact, the theater was largely empty despite the fact that this movie is an Acadamy Award nominee.The main issue is that the dialogue is muffled and mumbled in many scenes. and the action itself is frequently devoid of meaning or difficuly to decipher. Moreover, the length of the film is esxcessive given the ephemeral nature of the plot.I should add that the switching from "past" to "present" and vice versa is annoying. The only high point was the cuteness of the little daughter. Some critics also have praised this film's depictions of physical intimacy, but I frankly didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
