Oh Samantha...

Morvern Callar(dir. Lynne Ramsay)
I can't really describe my experience with this film. Disaffected throughout most of it. It was strange and haunting and challenging to get into. It was easy to watch it and be amazed by the film's rhtyhm and images, but it all relied on the character. I got into it near the end when Morvern is by herself and you're able to take her in without all the noise and music distracting you. The end is rather oblique and is kind of frustrating. I might have to watch this again, but it definately makes me want to see Ratcatcher.
