    I use habit and routine to make my life possible. Sammy had no drive, no reason to make it work. Me? Yeah, I got a reason. Oh so this was as good as everyone else has been saying for decades huh

Pearce, who's in every scene except the Sammy flashbacks, dominates the picture through his feral performance.

Operates in an orbit somewhere between Oliver Sacks and Lewis Carroll. I can't remember when a movie has seemed so clever, strangely affecting and slyly funny at the very same time.
