This was a very depressing film. AJ comes across as a manipulative sociopath who's only talent is art. Anyone getting close to him seems to be damaged by it. Admittedly I don't know much about the artist, but this movie definitely didn't make me want to know anything more about him. He seemed like a cancerous evil man with no real redeeming qualities. Captain Evans seemed like a decent enough guy. though his character was a little bit one dimensional. The fact that Florence married AJ makes her seem like a complete moron and makes it hard to care about her inevitable suicide. She destroyed her life getting involved with such a worthless piece of excrement. There's little character development, and much of the characters motivations remain a mystery. Especially Florence.
