This movie is so uncanny in that ,while relatively little plot is present, it says so much about the characters and their on the surface exciting but truly vapid lives. It is poignant and yet funny at times. It didn't fare nearly as well in critics' eyes and at the box office as it deserved to do. All the characters were so well cast--they make a most attractive ensemble--but for all these people who seem to have so much to envy, they are surprisingly unhappy, and this dichotomy is what makes this movie so moving and affecting. I've seen it perhaps 10 times and NEVER tire of watching it, because each time I glean something new!
