...This is not the first inquiry into the war. In 2003, the Hutton Inquiry examined the reasons behind the suicide of a British government scientist who had been the source of media reports claiming that Blair had "sexed up" intelligence assessments of Iraq's weapons-of-mass-destruction program before the war. In 2004, the Butler Review into prewar British intelligence reports concluded that key information used to justify the war had been unreliable and that British intelligence services were guilty of a number of failings. In the U.S., a 2004 Republican-led Senate report on U.S. prewar intelligence-gathering...
...these lines abound in this highly verbal film, but the interview segments go far beyond a women-are-from-Venus approach in unfolding the fragility of both genders in their relationships.

Krasinski shows up periodically as Ryan, the ex responsible for Sara's misery...
...hyper-awareness of many of the interviews - it's as if the subjects had been given truth serum and knew it - only enhances the sense of disengagement. Hutton's character describes meeting his beautiful wife, who is already a mother, and says he knew he ought to marry her because he'd never do better. "I remember thinking, this is amazing, it's like she's already, pre-tested? I actually thought about that. Is it shallow? Does it sound shallow? Or do you think the truth behind this kind of thing will always sound kind of shallow? Everybody...
