LA LA LAND is probably going to win a bunch of awards that should be retroactively given to this movie instead

THIS IS JUST EWAN MCGREGOR'S VILLAIN ORIGIN STORY OF HOW HE WENT FROM BEING A TOP TO A BOTTOM
Review by Sean Baker 4

I don’t know where I was in 2003 but I was obviously under a rock. I knew about his title but didn’t know anything about it. Really impressed. Watched on DVD and would like to revisit in HD because there is so much detail in the production design and art direction. Hilarious script and performances.
Not a single nomination from Academy or Golden Globes (from what I can tell). If this was a 2018 film, it would be a major contender.

Review by lydia de matos ★★★★½

even better on the rewatch, i am still beholden to the production design, the score is simultaneously beautiful and hilarious, and everything about the performances and dialogue is to die for
Review by GrrEgg ★★★★

Fun homage/parody of 60s rom-coms. Sarah Paulson and David Hyde Pierce particularly shine.
