Hearts of Glassreviewed by Miriam Devlin
This movie is ... very interesting. The plot actually did keep me
interested, because I had no idea what was going to happen. I would really
have liked the ending to have tied together all of the bits of confusion
that made up the rest of the movie. But, it did not.
Nothing in this movie was tied together. It ended abruptly. We traveled to
the Island of Seagulls, where the Card-playing Man and the Skinny Insane Woman
are from. Since the movie did not tie things together, I had to do so
for myself.
So, if you want to watch a movie with any sort of coherency, don't watch
Hearts of Glass. But if you're not opposed to unremitting confusion,
watch it.
