Exterminating Angel

Saw Exterminating Angel. It was awesome. A dinner party goes awry when the guest don't leave at the right time and are trapped in one living room for days on end. Almost science-fiction-like in the obsessive exploration of a single simple idea. Reminds me of the comic-book artist Shintaro Kago's work. Society within the room breaks down as society outside of the room is utterly baffled by everyone's inexplicable inability to enter or leave the room. Great stuff.
