A little known fact is that the incomparable Charley Chase introduced the world to the Little Rascals. This is their first short. They play a bunch of annoying kids who torment poor Charley until he gets his nerve and fights back, with hilarious results. One of Chase's best.
One of the most interesting movies I've ever seen. Close attention NEEDS to be paid to a movie with so many characters, but it always sustained my attention. All performances were perfect and the all-star cast helped me keep up with all the characters (Julianne Moore is married to Matthew Modine, etc.). Altman is the real star of this movie though.
I had the oppurtunity to attend a sneak preview of this movie before it was released. While I think that Lu is a terrific story-teller and I would like to see what she has in store next, this movie did nothing for me. I've seen a story similar to this many times. The actor's were all adequate. I don't know what it was but it was a very unpleasant movie to watch, and you're reading a comment by a guy who thought Boogie Nights is one of the best movies of the decade. The characters were all kind of cardboard. I couldn't relate to any of them on a personal level. I definately understand if people like it though because there's a lot to like.
