Probably one of the most brutal interpersonal relationship movies ive ever seen.

If life is stupendous one cannot also demand that it should be easy. - Robert Musil

If it's possible to underrate a director with two amazing movies (Philadelphia and Silence of the Lambs), he may have been.

Also, his technique of having the actor look directly into the camera while they delivered dialogue was a remarkable technique.

Condolences to his family.
