time passes quite fast in this movie.
13 days ... hups: take it. now lets go and kill an this icebear.
but no, really, the movie itself seems to be a 'put-it-togehter-in-a-way-that-works-somehow' ...
all the scenes seem to be loose, things are happening just because, everything feels unconnected. nothing is moving, everything is jumping.
they found the dog, and then what? talking to the mother after horserace (who is she?) ...
loose spikes in/out of time. everything seems to be without consequences, just happening.
and yes, life is like that.
a question of sloppy editing? (the scenes for themselves are great, very good motives, good performances)
or the screenplay had no need for having the people talk/listening to each other
or maybe all this even intentional ...
or i didn't have the required attention span ...
I wonder how this movie was received when in came out ...
but wait; I am writing along with watching the movie; and it just happens now that Sean Connery shows up. And he really has a conversation with Cardinale that takes longer then 20 seconds, sitting in front of the organ between the stuffed pinguin and icebear, playing, this could pump some blood into the story.
