Well. At least this film is different. It has at least three subplots winding through it and I couldn't tell which one was the main theme. In the end, it really doesn't matter. The actors all did good things with their roles, and the director didn't get in the way. I think that all the focus on excretory matters was different from the usual potty humor of the day; it seemed more to display the fanaticism of some of the characters, and that, I think, is really what the film is about. Kudos to Sir Anthony Hopkins, Bridget Fonda, and, in a smaller role, Lara Flynn Boyle.
