Movie: House of Sand and Fog

Holy crap what a depressing movie this was. I had been warned it was depressing, but man they weren’t kidding. I won’t go into a schpiel about the movie, but I will say that Jennifer Connelly was a bit wooden but still good (after all, wasn’t her character a bit wooden?), and Shohreh Aghdashloo was decent, but I don’t think she deserved the Best Supporting Actress nomination that she got.

2 1/2 stars out of five. And a bump up of several comedies on my Netflix list to counteract the desolation of this one.

    Yeah, my husband & I watched this and after it was over we just sat there quietly, and then he turned to me and said, “Not really a date movie, huh?”
