Electra Luxx

This large-cast discordant drama was meandering aimlessly through its script, when the Paramount camera decided it had had enough and ended things prematurely, giving a sizable burst of patrons the chance to scurry from the theater.  I give credit to the director for filling in so well at such an unexpected disaster, turning a stall session into a Q&A and sharing far more than most directors can or will about past and future productions.

Does the ending tie it all together in some Guy Ritchie-style narrative?  If SXSW adds a second screening at a reasonable time, I'll give it a second chance.  Otherwise, I may never know.
