I'm not sure what to think - it takes depression to a new level

Planning to see it, but as you point out not exactly an upbeat movie.

On my list too, and I'm not even from Boston.

That town is right up the road from me. Very, very wealthy old money little town on the Atlantic coast. There are some spectacular old mansions there.

my wife liked it, I thought it was pretty slow. I did like
the scenery and shots of new England though.

Yes it was slow in the beginning until he goes for his late night beer run

Anybody else but me think that Casey Affleck is a better actor than his brother?

That's an easy call--yes. The movie was well made but pretty depressing. No spoilers as to the reasons why.

Saw it this evening with my wife and our son. I knew the movie would be difficult to sit through, but I looked at my watch a few times to see how much longer the film was going to last. Talk about bleak. Casey Affleck was quite good. Some of the photography is great.
