This movie is not for everyone. It's strange. Some people will love it and some people will hate it. I am in the group of people who liked it. I think it's a decent movie.

I don’t know much about her life, but I read her collected short stories a while back. About half of them were about angry women killing their husbands. If I were her husband, I would have slept in a different room with the door locked.
