Did you see Somewhere? Talk about slow. It was almost frightening how much she was ripping off Gus Van Sant (Gerry, Elephant and Last Days). Gus might get some flack here, I dunno, but I loved those movies, especially Last Days. Some of the scenes were amazing and that panning out shot was great. I remember the Venus in Furs scene, That film was so slow but I never felt like it lost momentum and the 'ironic' scenes like the Mormons and Boyz II Men were actually good and amusing. I felt like the stripper thing was trying for that but it was boring and uninteresting.
