Movie Review - Henry Fool (1998)

Starring - Thomas Jay Ryan, James Urbaniak & Parker Posey
Director - Hal Hartley
Domestic Gross - $1,338,335
Running Time - 137 minutes

I can't remember who recommended this movie. Lucky for them because if I do remember somebody's gettin' bitch slapped. Not only was this movie a bucket of suck, but it was a 2 hour and 17 minute bucket. It was completely all over the place. Somehow this guy who is being tormented by locals for being "half-a-retard" ends up a Nobel Laureate for some type of DH Lawrence type poetry. But along the way his friend Henry Fool bangs his mom and impregnates his sister who then throws boiling water in his face. Sound absurd? It absolutely was. Seeing as I've already wasted more than two hours on this I will waste no more except to say... "Don't... Just don't".
