Disappointing. On further review, ridiculous. I found googling Diane Arbus much more satisfying and entertaining than watching this movie. It's as if they wanted to make an "art" movie, found a frame to hang it on (Arbus' life) and then made up a bunch of stuff to connect the dots. I think this does the real Arbus a disservice.

It could have been so much more interesting. Mostly it seemed just a half-hearted jaunt into exploring minor perversions/fetishes. I really wasn't sure what the point was (since they didn't really seem to have a moral (accepting those who are different/loving people for who they are, not what they look like, vive la difference, etc) - nada. ). They didn't really delve into the personalities much and the 'fur' aspect was mostly incidental.

This was the first movie in a LONG time that I couldn't finish. What could have been the story of an interesting life, was just a series of weird scenes. I turned it off after about an hour, and the story had gone nowhere. Strange, non-sensical characters. Nicole Kidman's acting was good, but she had nothing to work with.

Terrible movie! One wonders why a first rate actress would choose such a second rate movie. Acting was good as it always is with Nicole Kidman but this version of "Wolf Man meets Desparate Housewives" was very strange with allot of gratuitous nudity. Even Nicole couldn't save this one!
