Spectacular implosion

The first episode of this film is well done. The characters grow, change, adapt, make sense, and are based in the real world. The costumes are lovely. The plot makes sense. The second episode seems to be written and directed by totally different people than the first. The plot makes no sense, climaxing in a remarkably unsatisfactory, confusing ending. There's a long scene between two characters on the beach, physically wrestling and yelling. This comes out of nowhere, is never explained or alluded to. One of the main female character contradicts herself in both her actions and words several times, with no explanation. It's as if her character goes mad for the fun of it.

The first episode is compelling and interesting. The second episode is a complete cluster, leaving one to wish for all those viewing hours back. Unless you are a D.H. Lawrence hobbyist, skip this title.
