Lars and the Real Girl

Some people have recommended this movie to me, so I watched it. I cannot, myself, recommend it. It was as tonally-off a movie as I have seen. The script could have worked as a bizarre comedy, perhaps starring Crispin Glover, but in its present form it doesn't meet rudimentary suspension-of disbelief standards. It's a shame because I admire several of the actors, especially Ryan Gosling, but this one was a big misfire.
