Surprised to find out this was David Cronenberg. Seemed more like Robert Altman doing one of those “look how horrible film industry people are” films that’s primarily entertaining only to film industry people. I did notice it was among the more engrossing of those, but, still. Even the likable cast (Robert Pattinson notwithstanding) couldn’t really keep me interested. Julianne Moore won some sort of big award for her performance as a vapid aging star in this. It was almost as weird as seeing her as a porn star in “Boogie Nights”, and she basically managed to make even that work somehow, so, ok.
