A Bore at the End of the Film

Last night, we watched the 2004 movie, "A Home at the End of the World," based on the Michael Cunningham novel.
The first half hour is so luminous and magical that it makes the rest of the incomprehensible exercise in wrongheadedness maddening in the extreme. In fact, the only things that kept me going during that last annoying hour were Colin Farrell's eyes (which I could stare at all night) and wondering if Robin Wright Penn was ever able to exact revenge on the hair and makeup department.
