An interesting film that tends to slow a bit in the middle. It highlights the trivial way authorities can treat people with mental illness. Good performances from Ben Mendelsohn, Toni Collette and Colin Friels. Barry Otto keeps the viewer on their toes with his character's insistent and unpredictable nature. 80's band, Men at Work's Colin Hay gives a notable performance as the pill-popping piano player and his accordion rendition of 'Ride of the Valkyries' adds a spark to the sober humour in this film. It is a good story and worth a look.
