Beautiful People

Inventively examines bigotry, combining daring humor and hyperbole, dark realism and shining idealism.

I have made the film sound grim. Actually it is fairly lighthearted, under the circumstances; like Catch-22, it enjoys the paradoxes that occur when you try to apply logic to war.

It's a joyful experience.

Vivid characters rendered impotent by a disorienting tone and a jerky, start-and-stop narrative that dilutes the film's putative emotional punch.
