Such a beautifully shot film, and Edgerton is hauntingly good. Loved all the little supporting roles that came and went in and out of his life. Agree with Jay that it would be a great film to see in the theater. I saw it at home and was still mesmerized by the Malick style of filming.
Bugonia was great fun. I will watch pretty much anything with Landry from Friday Night Lights, and he was terrific again. The guy is such a chameleon. If you like Emma Stone (I do!), you'll enjoy seeing her throw herself into another delightfully bizarre scenario.

- "less audience friendly" is a kind way to put it.
