    It was released on Blu-Ray and DVD in France last month. I have it sitting here waiting to be watched alongside Blood Ties

    It was released as Darko said in France a few months ago on DVD and is widely able to see (that's all I say). Harvey Weinstein is going to give it a limited release in May in the States in art house cinemas and more then likely give it a DVD , as the film got a bit of a bashing at Cannes which is a bit of a disappointment seen as the movie that must have been spent on this film. Don't be surprised if it goes straight to DVD here or is given a small release in Cineworld for a week.

    Is it a lost classic? Not really to be fair, Joaquin Phoenix is awesome as usual and is the main reason to watch it, in the hands of a less talented actor the character of Bruno Weiss could have been a horrible character but Phoenix actually makes you care for him. Marion Cotillard gives a good performance, the camera work and set design is amazing. But the script is clichéd and it feels like a bit of a chore to watch some of it. But it's worth a watch. But James Gray's best film is still Two Lovers for me.

    I agree with your analysis 100%.

    The film would have been a lot better with a more interesting central character ,whilst Cotillard's acting was good ,her character was boring and too simplistic.
