This just isn’t very good. A film where the entire point is to make me feel like shit by piling on a worse and worse outcome for Selma. The acting, other than Bjork, who isn’t spectacular but very good for a non-actor, is awful. The only thing good about the film are the musical sequences, which have enough energy to give the film a brief 5-minute pick me up until the characters begin sobbing and screaming again. This to me is another example of how the Palme D’or just can’t get it right (Code: Unknown is one of a few better choices for 2000).
