60878, Deleted Scenes from the script
Posted by SoulHonky, Tue Jan-15-08 03:02 AM
My co-worker just finished the script and said it was pretty different from the movie and that there were scenes (which I thought the film needed) of Daniel saying how much he truly loved his son and also explaining why he didn't have a wife ("He couldn't be my son. My cock doesn't work.").

I've blogged about the film but, the short version, my opinion was that it was an amazingly well-crafted film that I didn't connect with. I never felt anything for the characters and assumed that they were heading down the paths towards misery. Also, it was a perfectly crafted metaphor that didn't really say anything. It might have been insightful in the 20's but it's almost commonplace now. (If anything, the "people" almost enjoy watching the rich and religious fall from grace nowadays, as this film was evidence of)
