A Serious Man -- rental

This movie was nominated this year for Best Picture at the Oscars. I watched it as a rental and thought it was interesting. It was definitely a dark noir type of film. A traditional Jewish family growing up in the 1960's going through non-traditional issues. It was definitely interesting and I'm sure I was not the target audience. I am not sure how it ended up on the Best Picture list but I am open to any discussion about it! As always I should say! I'm always open for discussion about movies. :)

Ok, so I'm glad I didn't pay $12.50, and I'm a little upset I spent the $5.00 on it at Blockbuster, but it was a slow week and I saw a new movie. :)

I'd recommend it if you are into dark noir and indie type films. Or just anything out of the ordinary. Again, it's more of an adult film, wait not that kind of adult film! The kind our parents might relate to more!

I felt so bad for the main character the whole movie. He is a hard working husband who just wants to provide for his family and be happy and he keeps getting the bad end of the stick. So, if you aren't into black noir or depressing movies, I'd skip it.
