★★★★☆
[First Watch]
If only James had some redeeming quality to latch on to! No matter how badly you might feel that there are parts of yourself that you would want to exfoliate if you could, the ugly parts and the weak parts, you at least would want to hold on to your self.
Seeing how pathetic James' life is, you don't get the sense that there is anything you wouldn't want to wash away. Maybe if he were replaced over and over and over again until there were nothing left, you might finally be rid of the rotten parts.
The primary tragedy is that Em took him back at the end. If I could change one thing, that would be it.
