Bubble - Another Steven Soderbergh Experience

We saw Bubble last night and LOVED it. Most people won't. (Love it or see it.)

Adding to my appreciation of this film, was knowing that Soderbergh took a group of non-actors and made them into his characters. It is both funny and sad and felt so authentic that is was hard to remember the actors were acting. The costumes and little touches (like the food they ate meal after meal after meal) were perfect. On the down side, it felt a little like a joke that people only on the coasts (and perhaps the more urban areas of Minnesota) might understand.

Here's the stats:
85 minutes
No one famous
Doll factory workers experience a little drama and a little reality
