Shame - the glass, mirrors, TVs, cool colours, and hard surfaces make up the ideal production design for this film about 2 very damaged people. Someone so desperate. It's a really sad film.
I just watched Hunger, too, which is what brought me to this film. I think Hunger is more artful, in a way, but both are brutal and stunning. Fassbender's gone out on a limb in both. Quite!
