In the first scene of Dark Horse, the camera opens on a dancing bride and groom surrounded
by their wedding guests, also enjoying the festivities. Will this be a film
about the beginning of a romantic marriage? No! This is a Todd Solondz film so
the camera soon settles upon the two people at the wedding who aren’t dancing.
They also happen to be mid-30s depressives, each one a terrible case of
arrested development and on the brink of complete breakdowns.
