'Dark Horse': Director finds humanity in unsympathetic lead ✭✭✭

Rhapsodically pathetic, the Hummer-driving schlub at the center of the new Todd Solondz film "Dark Horse" has hit his mid-30s without realizing just how many unfortunate personality traits fight every second for dominance of his everyday life. He's hostile, privileged, an insecure narcissist, and it's not simply a Hummer he drives — it's a yellow Hummer.
