Queen of Earth: Directed by Alex Ross Perry. With Elisabeth Moss, Katherine Waterston, Patrick Fugit, Kentucker Audley. Two women who grew up together discover they have drifted apart when they retreat to a lake house together.

“To me, this was one of those supposed deep dramas that produced only unlikable characters, espousing psychological drivel throughout, and thus in the end just became ponderous and irritating to watch. Often told through flashbacks, it held my interest for a while, wondering where it was all going. I should have known better because it ended up going nowhere, all the way to its highly ambiguous finale.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eElisabeth Moss and Katherine Waterston star as Catherine and Virginia respectively. Catherine has come up to her best friend Virginiau0026#39;s family vacation home to get some rest and relaxation. Her emotional state is quite unstable, after her father, a renowned artist committed suicide, and her partner has told her heu0026#39;s having an affair with another woman.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf these two women are best friends, I wouldnu0026#39;t like to meet their enemies, because Catherine and Virginia are constantly bickering at their best moments and being cruel and hostile to each other at their worst. Theyu0026#39;re joined from time to time by Virginiau0026#39;s neighbor Rich (Patrick Fugit), whou0026#39;s in a relationship of some sorts with Virginia, and who seems to delight in u0026quot;adding fuel to the fireu0026quot; whenever he can to provoke the unstable Catherine.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAll in all, I imagine the writer and director here Alex Ross Perry, was aiming for a deep meaningful film, but all I found it to be was a tedious and irritating waste of time.”
