This movie was so emotionally involving that I literally fainted in cinema during the climax and had to go again to see what happened.
The psychology, rather than the action, is what is gripping. I felt that the most gripping theme of the movie was that of misunderstanding others, not 'love', or 'passion'.
Every actor is brilliant, particularly Holly Hunter and Anna Paquin.
Not everyone would like the film. Many people (and particularly men) would think, "What was the point of all that?" Perhaps it is a "chick flick". Yet, if you are fascinated by the psychology of human relationships, this movie casts an eerie spell that remains with you long after seeing it.
