Madden does his usual shtick which is, as always, simultaneously beautiful and grotesque. I find it a bit hard to watch his movies, as much as I appreciate them. They're challenging on purpose and not always in a good way. I find myself constantly asking myself two things, "What the heck is going on?" and "Do I want to keep watching this?" And therein lies the beauty of it all; he creates fantastical, dreamy worlds that are familiar and also completely alien. He's a genius and a devil wrapped in a single fur coat. You gotta be a real film freak to actually like and appreciate his films. Like me.
