Brilliant performances by the lead characters really elevate this overly long and sometimes flawed film. The clown scene still stands out as awkward when the film switches clumsily to a slapstick comedy. After meandering a bit in the beginning, things shift into high gear and the story doesn't disappoint. Although the twists are mostly telegraphed, since the movie doesn't rely on them it doesn't take away the enjoyment.
