I suppose the underlying theme could be expressed more quickly. Speed is not always the goal in cinema. Heck I could some up any Shakespeare play in five minutes and explain the themes in less. I'm not saying this movie is brilliant or Shakespeare but for me it does what it sets out to do pretty well. It is fairly oiriginal and it has some very nice performances.
