Secretary was bizarre, but I enjoyed it. This one looks to be strange as well, but in a interesting way.

I agree, I don't think I fully "liked" Secretary, so to speak, but there was something so magnetic about it, and Maggie Gyllenhaal's performance, that it barely missed my 2002 top ten list.

Fur looks...weird. I don't know what to think of it, though I am burned out by Nicole Kidman.

I haven't seen Secretary but this has looked really interesting from the trailer and the synopsis...reviews haven't been great so far though which makes me wary and with so many other films coming out that I wanna see, I may end up skipping over this one in theatres (tho if I have time, I'll probably try getting out to see this as well).

I really don't know much about Diane Arbus, but this film is looking really...strange. I, for one, have to see this just to get how strange it is.
Also, I was a decent fan of Sectary. It was a ok movie that really was held together by the peformances.

I really, really want to see this. Secretary was brilliant and this seems to have the same kind of offbeat mentality to it. I loved the trailer, this looks like some welcome change to the same ol' biopic formula. And the cast is pretty damn good too.
