over the years, many times i've been annoyed by the constant interruptions by Margaret, and my sympathy has always been with David. quite often i agree with his opinion. but this time i'm annoyed cos he says "it's possibly .. probably ... a depiction of life in the western suburbs in our cities". Is he so out of touch? Is this movie so unrealistic??? I don't think so.
