Good movie. How come they don't make movies such as this one anymore?
All the good writing is in the old films.
Very good writing.

no more because all the smart people are dieing off getting replaced by morons raised on MTV and fast food.
shareWell it is a film adaptation of a play, which is primarily about the writing. Most plays are 99% dialogue and a playwright can take years to perfect a play, whereas most scripts these days are hacked together in a few weeks, then "doctored" by many other writers.

This is a great film unfortunately it is let down by the ending .. Helga was not a worthy victor and did not deserve to benefit at the end. The ending drags this film down from a 9 to a 7 IMHO.
