The title sort of sums it up for me. There was a lot of jumping back and forth in time and it was quite hard to follow when was when and when it was. Is it impossible to just tell things in a straight line?
Now I understand why Zach Galifianakis has always had a beard. The bland reason is that he looks really strange without one. Not just "I am not used to it" strange but, in fact, really strange: The bottom half of his face just isn´t.. there.
The story is very interesting but for some reason the film makers chose to focus on so called "sexism" instead of the fact that the US was in a grip of a tulip fever-style mass hysteria. Basically they took a part of history and did not tell the relevant parts, but used it as a vehicle for their own political reasons. Which is sad.
