Well, I watched this, and enjoyed it. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. I think it's the type of film if you let it just wash over you, you get more out of it than going in with expectations.

The Angel of Death thing seemed a little silly and initially I found it a bit annoying, as it kept breaking the 4th wall for me - reminding me I was watching a movie. But I got over it, and it just seemed organic to the film by the end.

I did like the music an awful lot, and Meryl Streep can really sing nicely - Lohan too. I might see if there's such a thing as a soundtrack to it - might be worth getting.


Overall, I found the characters likeable and extremely well-acted and convincing, but it did have a clear lack of focus when there was a clear dynamic right there in front of us to give it focus - a long-standing, loved radio show closing down.
