I liked Suture, but have a feeling it might not be as great as I remember it.
Felt like they had a kind of unique approach and possibly huge potential, at leat within a very specific sphere of "art" cinema?
Blew it with The Deep End.

suture as a concept is interesting, & they execute it w skill + flair for first-timers but idk it leaves me p cold
i can see exactly y soderbergh liked it tho, good anecdote of him attending a rough cut, asking for a mtg w them the following day but saying nothing else, & then showing up & saying he had talked w his accountant abt mortgaging his house so he could fund the finishing costs
lots of other good tidbits on the arrow commentary also.. these guys said they are friendly w malick a bit

'the friend' is good, maybe hard to recommend as it is a little too real w/r/t loss and aging
