Anyone see it yet?

I have never had such a schizo experience with a movie. One minute I wanted to walk out, the next I was crying and didn't want it to end. Totally bizarre, maybe I should have read the book first to prepare myself.

While I think the movie overall is quite uneven, there are some stellar performances. I expect another nomination for the incredible and beautiful Annette Bening (who went to the same college I did), and please, does it get any better than Jill Clayburgh? And the guy who played Augustin was fantastic himself, I need to learn more about him.

Haven't seen it yet but will next week. I remember when I read the book (and loved it!) I kept thinking - how could they possibly make this into a movie? The trailers look good so I'll post more once I've seen it.

I am looking forward to this film.
I know Ryan Murphy - The Director.
Ryan is also the creator of Nip/Tuck.
It should be wild...I have known Ryan for like 10 yrs or more..when he was parthers with Frank "Gods & Monsters" Condon. Now Frank is directing Dreamgirls. It is exciting to see them both become so successful. They were
both kicking around for years....
