No excuse whatsoever...

Claire Danes practically ruins this film single-handedly by depriving it of quality sexuality. After all these years, some quality nudity from her would show us she's still taking these roles seriously. But for her to land a role like this, I don't think it's demanding too much that she masters it and gives audiences what they've come to expect from such a talent - and to see at least a solid take or two worth of her glistening wet in her birthday suit and her eyeshadow starting to run; much less a few mere minutes of fully-frontal, post-coital panting heaving her bare, shiny breasts up & down. If a quality leading lady such as Ms Danes still cares about audience loyalty and mastering her craft, then good directors must ensure they're held to higher standards of quality - which in such cases should translate to leading ladies with thoroughly disheveled hair & makeup, bare breasts, and quality well-kempt vaginas!

Before lazy Hollywood ruins film forever!
