<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Damn, I really didn't know if he could do it. Actually act in a convincing manner that allowed me to empathize with the character. This was one incredible movie, from the opening you understood that whatever you thought the movie was going to be about was wrong. No drunks, no mention of it. Some weird as hell crap involving 7 wacko sisters, a scizo Sandler, a sex phone line gone terribly wrong and oh yeah, Emily Watson as the love interest. This is a movie to watch 3 or 4 times with different people so you get their perspectives too. i'm definately getting this on DVD so I can hear the director's comentary. btw, it won best director at the Toronto Film Festival, same guy as Boogie Nights.</div>

Heh. The term "punch-drunk" doesn't have anything to do with alcohol.</div>

"I'm looking at your face and I just want to smash it. Just fucking smash it with a sledge hammer and squeeze it - you're so pretty"
....err, heh. What the fuck?
Talk about a main character you can't possibly have any sympathy for...
