This movie was interesting. It's a smart concept. Drop-dead gorgeous guy takes out a real dog because he really does like her...and kind of wants to get some. Overall I think that Phoenix, as usual, puts in a stellar performance. Taylor is all right and I think she knows Rose a little better than she would like us to think. There are certain moments in this movie that thought I would vomit--like Eddie gets the four bluebirds on his arm. But there were also moments that I couldn't breathe--like when the two were in the little music hall of music boxes and such. They turn everything on and then Phoenix just becomes his character from there on out. Officially, I kinda liked this movie. Unofficially, I think that if Phoenix were still alive he could have an Oscar.
