Mystic River is filed with The English Patient

in my mind as being . . . not so baffling for the praise they've garnered (because it's totally predictable, really) as infuriating. They're pure middle-brow product, marketed to once-a-year museum-goers who, once a year, seek out whatever film the industry has annointed to be that one must-see, "challenging," "important," "academy award material," watercooler movie so they can rest assured that they've done their duty to remain with the times and "culturally literate."
