Flogging Margaret

Boy gets dumped by STUPID girl. Boy wallows. Boy meets GREAT girl. Stupid girl comes back. I'll leave out what happens, but this is the movie. All else the movie says it is, it never amounts to. The text is far from great, and so is the acting.Three main characters were irritatingly bad. They never step far from acting the same way, no matter what. They did not make real characters of themselves. The parts and this film needed that. But it is not fair to not give credit, when some of these actors were good. The Chainsaw guy was very funny, and very good at his role. The blonde girl playing Margaret was great. I haven't seen a multilayered straight up manipulative character in a while done that well. And my favorite actresses were the Germans. I wanted them more. Every scene they had, they were believable. Overall I think the writing failed these actors. Good idea, poorly executed. Money, some recasting, a rewrite, good director-this could of been really fun and different.
