Lee B. @Elenaferrante Feb 1 Interesting character study without condescension or judgement of mental illness,alcoholism and family dysfunction. Fantastic acting and funny at times. The randomness of familiarity that only happens in nyc . I really liked this film. See more 07/05/2018 Soft in the Head is creative in its cinematography and writing, but I could not get past the bitterly unsympathetic portrayal of the main character. We are shown how horrible she is repeatedly, but never really understand why. It almost feels as if the director/writer is angry with her, even with the title of the movie. She exists not so much for her own life but to mess up the lives of others. See more 06/18/2015 Nathan Silver creates a fully realized chaotic, messy and unpredictable world that all but comes totally unhinged. Although the intention seems unfocused, he approaches his two primary characters in such with such steadfast commitment that lack of narrative focus actually ends up being an asset. The movie is reminiscent of a 1970's rambling experimental film. The difference is is that the whole film is so well contained. An unexpected and riveting study of madness that is only silenced in the film's final moments. See more Read all reviews
