The extremely talented Ben Whishaw in a tour de force role of a man having a complete breakdown. The film is basically nothing more than that other than some interaction with a few others, primarily his parents. I love him as a performer and all he has done has gradually produced a really fascinating career and from what I know, he's seems also a pretty interesting man. I think I would like him. He is great here, but I cannot say that I enjoyed this film very much other than viewing a performer giving it his all. It is depressing to watch and it wore me out, but I am glad that I got too see what he does here. Other than Bond films, it's a rarity to see him in conventional films and he is never less than good and usually more than that.
