It is said the difference between comedy and tragedy is time.
In fact, the most daring thing about the picture is its exact smallness.
For here is a movie thats focused essentially on a woman who cant pull herself out of bed.
Geralds Gamebegins peacefully enough.
Is this really the only way her older husband can find excitement now?
But she doesnt know the half of it.
And yes, he is a character toowearing black.
Hence its a canny decision to have Jessie re-litigate her suddenly ended marriage with these flights of fancy.
For who knows what really watches in the dark of night?
