Watching all of the interviews, there is no sense of creating a controversial story. In fact as I said earlier, it's a complex, elegant and beautiful one. Though from the interviews, it's a very simple one too, about being a single mother. I guess that's what makes it so elegant. All of the acting is first rate, Scarlett Johansson gives a wonderful performance.

It's a movie that can and should be seen more than once because there are so many clever little details, it should be even more fun the second time. I'm going again on Friday night.
Trying to debate binary thought with directional thought is a lost cause.

You should know this by now, but you are a directional thinker and suffer that burden.

Rejoice in it.
