dr. R @Yes123456 Sep 20, 2026 In a perfect world, Solondz would've used his shot with Warner to make his much better next film Palindromes, but, instead, we got this. Not that this is a bad thing, far from it. We got an hour and 20 minutes of pure Solondz magic. The issue here is that we don't get enough pure movie plot. The first part, Fiction, is over and out in 20 minutes, and concerns a collegiate creative writer. The second story, nonfiction, is about a documentarian following a family around. Solondz takes these minimal ideas, and pumps them full of enough juice to make a very good movie. but at a malnourished 1:20, he can only do so much. As usual, Solondz sets the spotlight on children, but this time, his extreme compassion just registers as hatred. His loving brutality is turned into surreal loathing. It's worth noting that this movie has an amazing score, highlighted, in my opinion, by the incredible song Scooby Driver, which I'm extremely greatful to see on spotify, unlike Mthe theme from Happiness. 4/5 See more Margaret T @Margaret47 Apr 6, 2025 If I could sit down with Todd Solondz and talk to him about any of his films it would be this one, in particular its first chapter, "Fiction." As many times as I've seen it I still don't really know what to make of it. It feels like it's about art -- which is unsafe -- being made in safe spaces. Both chapters feature a non-white person put in a position of serving privileged children and exacting a form of revenge. But I'm not sure who we're meant to empathise with.

Só o começo é o fim sao bons, o resto do filme é fraco.
