Spoilers below:No, I meant atrocity in the literal sense, not hyperbole. The rabbis were buffoons, the family was nuts, the relative was brought up on sex charges and gambling. The protagonist acted like a space cadet, not a professor. And for what? Another hollywood gem that we can't get any answers from religion? It's been done to death. Thanks, but no thanks.
I've seen Burn After Reading four times already and it just keeps getting better.

Don't you get enough exercise cheerleading that POV over on the Outside board? And FYI, just so you don't try tarring me with that brush: it isn't anti-semitic behavior to question the subjective criticism of a film that others haven't found objectionable.
AuPh
but anti-semitism does exist--difficult as it may be for you to face reality--and it's best not to feed the monster with unflattering, misleading images of Judaism. Why would you even want to portray a Bar Mitzvah or rabbis like that? It really added nothing to the film, which was devoid of any meaning or redeeming quality.
