Query: parched monotony

Two hours in waiting for the plot to start, and randomly, the ending credits roll. Even more unforgiveable than the ending was the time spent filming conversations in pitch darkness. By the ending of the movie, I was just relieved a husband dropped instead of one of the oxen - who were far more engaging characters. Apparently the canary died off-screen, so even that bit of action was considered too disruptive of the intended parched monotony. And just what was being shoveled into the girl scout fire pit - is that when they buried the canary?
