Oh yeah, that one was rough. All Noah Bombauch (sp?) films are. Funny that he was mentored by, and originally touted as "the next," Wes Anderson. I know Anderson is way too heavily associated with hipsterdom to be considered legit by most film buffs, but I love (LOVE) his movies, and think he's perfected the art of telling family-based dramedies in an almost Salinger-esque degree. And his movies are generally hilarious, while Bombauch's just go for the gut and pull out the talons. So, the next Anderson, Bombauch is not. But he still has a unique, if heartbreaking, style and vision.
