Marital philosophy marred by poor technical quality., 6 February 2003
7/10
Author: mifunesamurai from Australia

Jaglom's personal diary on marital relationships. Watch this with a partner and then compare notes. Be warned - this film could start up divorce procedures! But you'd be amazed how frank this technical messy and poorly edited film can be!
