"This is the first time I'm seeing a movie with no plot" - Someone on McCabe and Mrs Miller (who is going on to say that women shouldn't fight for equality because equality is constructed by men [?])

I thought Don't Come Knocking was bad, but this was even worse. At least in the former there was a motive and the movie was going somewhere. In this, things happen for no reason and the indistinct dialogue doesn't help things (I had to check Wikipedia to find out wth was going on).

This got 89% on Rotten Romatoes, and Don't Come Knocking got 41%, which confirms my aphorism that if the critics love a show, it can either be really good or really bad, but if they hate it, it's probably really bad (unless it's so bad it's good).
