Probably the most depressing movie I ever saw in the theater. (I couldn't walk out because I was with a friend, and we kept hoping it would get better.) Still, the first quarter hour is almost bearable and the period details are nice. This is based on the Michael Cunningham novel and directed by Stephen Daldry, nine years before Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. I tagged the people I recognized and have to note that this is likely the worst Julianne Moore performance I've ever seen.
