Lordy was I awesomely surprised. The movie, while trying to be a comedy, fails miserably at it and becomes more of an offbeat comedy with deep undertones.

was honestly chilling and well done. Though the scene afterwards left me a bit bitter in the mouth.
Anyways, the themes addressed throughout the movie are genuinely interesting.

No no, EXPECTING, at the start of the movie. The master piano player and ice sculptor gave me the indication that it was years.
