Despite the many bad reviews I read about this film on IMDb.com, I surprisingly enjoyed this very much! The setting of the film is almost a character in itself. The bleak and lifeless characteristics it has certainly leave a "presence" on screen. The film wouldn't be the same without it.
The plot is quite good. Almost a bit too many affairs to keep track of but it all comes to make sense at the end. But the doozy of them all (if you see it, you'll know what i mean) seems a bit of a stretch to me. Fine acting by the entire cast.
I'd like to add that this film is in dire need of being digitally remastered and thrown onto a blu ray. Watching this film from a regular DVD on an HD TV doesn't do it any justice and the cinematography is much too splendid to just go to waste.
