Greenberg (movie) Frustrations!

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone, just a very short o/t rant here: over the weekend I watched Noah

Baumbach's 'Greenberg'...like 'Margot at the Wedding', it was a perfectly

accurate account of Cluster B behavior, and the effect it has on those close to

those around him. Greenberg was a completely classical narcissist, with some

OCD tendencies, as well. Yet, everyone in the movie took him completely

seriously, and engaged with him on the *substance* of what he was saying, and

the movie presented him as sympathetic...It's like the writer/director, as well

as all the characters, was exporting KO feelings and sympathies into the Cluster

B. Baumbach (sp?), he must have been a split good or in a chosen relationship,

because he does not seem to comprehend the *level* of damage Cluster Bs do--even

as he documents it totally accurately! It really freaked me out.
