A gem
Ar great screenplay rippling with dark humor of the highest quality: a very disturbing family tragedy out of a greek drama, that had the audience in stitches half the time, and benunbed sadness the other half. Extraordinary performances by Ellen Barkin as the guilt ridden, thin skinned mother vixen; Ezra Miller as a modern day Hamlet-- brilliant verbal, omniscient, and self-destroying, Ellen Burstyn as the tight lipped grand dame of the family, a poignant performance by the aged George Kennedy as the demented grandfather, and young Daniel Yestin spot on as a very smoart asperger's kid brother, Thomas Haden Church furious at his cluelessness, Demi Moore, on and on great performances Defnitely R rated! Great score by first time movie scoring icelandic composer Olafur Arnalds, great directing--- a fabulous movie that is being horribly squelched in the theaters and by reviewers who really don't get it.
