Once again, Sally Potter displays her unparallelled genius for film making. And she wrote this screenplay, some of which is quite poetic, to boot! Can't say when I last enjoyed a film this much. The old lady's soliloquy alone is worth the purchase price. Just brilliant, Sally. You've done it again. Way ahead of the pack. A severely underrated director. An unsung genius.
