        Famed film critic Roger Ebert turned down the chance to watch this movie at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival, after discovering his colleague Richard Corliss and his wife had walked out of a screening twenty minutes in. According to Ebert, Mary Corliss said "the movie made her feel like rats were fighting in her skull."

      Boring?
      We can find lots of examples like this. Today, yesterday, all along the history of movie making. Did you know that, in its time, "Citizen Kane" was not exactly recognized? We need movies that really dare to go against the "easy thinking" of blockbusters, Borat and others... movies that some people avoid because they feel... bored. Bored??? Why do people think that their boredom is important for the destiny of the world?... Maybe for the destiny of "their" world. But who cares? This is just one of the greatest movies of 2006, a challenge to look at people and places without the boring mediocrity of reality TV. Yes, boring.
