   I ran across the DVD in the bargain bin last August. The thing that   
   stuck with me was how Dinklage seemed to mumble his way through the   
   whole thing, not giving a much of a reaction to anything.   
      
   From the director of Meadowland which I also own and enjoyed more. He   
   started out as a cinematographer so it follows his films are going to   
   look really nice.
