Another movie about the angst of the idle rich.


It's not without its charm, but the subject matter is pretty dull. Poor little rich girl cannot commit. Poor little rich boy wants a kid and doesn't know why (and is prone to delusions and self-abuse). It's a shame to see skillful filmmaking and talented actors committed to making such empty fluff. It lacks the 'quirkiness' of a Wes Anderson project and joins a slew of similar movies that one gets the impression are the self-indulgent product of directors not dissimilar to their characters in that they have the connections and money to make a movie due to no virtue of their own.
