A bit out-of-the-box in terms of narrative, storytelling pace, mood and genre (is it bleak drama, is it surrealist comedy, is it postmodern horror?), but Glenn Close triumphs! As the pusillanimous Bernie, she evokes the universe from an acting performance that is quiet, understated, and later on, justifiably explosive yet also touching. I would want this developed into a series with all of its quirks, eccentricities and artistic vision intact.
