The most accurate depiction of the graduate school life--the agony of independence and the incessant, maddening pressure to produce something original and exceptional in deep isolation. The film grindingly, relentlessly depicts Paul's descent and it very accurately displays how his crisis was self-induced, rooted in his own malaise, not in the absence of his book. Harrowing to watch, for a former graduate student.
Intriguing characters, couldn't wait to see what was happening next.
Paul's seemingly mundane quest ends with a mundane ending. It simmers and even boils over at points, but ultimately this story falls flat. He loses everything to get this book back, and after watching I still have no idea what he was so afraid of.
afraid of taking responsibility for just about anything, seems to me.
not many notes in the book after all....
