It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
