My friend Paul and I went to see Broken Flowers on Staurday evening. I thought it was a fantastic movie that ended perfectly. Bill Murray plays his role perfectly (as usual), and Jim Jarmusch manages to create a world that feels intrinsically real. The middle-aged people sitting behind us, however, just didn't get it. After the movie ended, they groused stupidly about the pacing, the plot, and especially the ending. One of the women actually said that the movie was a waste of time and they should have gone to see The 40 Year Old Virgin instead! People like that should just stay the hell away from independent films, it would really just be better for everyone.
