Featured review
central character flaw
Nice NYC comic romp with a fatal flaw: central character just isn't likable. She's cheating, she's lying, she's whining, she only talks about herself -- so why is everyone falling all over her, aside from sex...
Ms. Mol was a true bright spot in this film. Central character needed some of her charm and warmth -- both in writing and delivery.
This was Closing Night film of a very successful 11th Seattle Lesbian and Gay Film Festival with director and star Justin Kirk in attendance. It received a very warm reception.
Filmed in 18 days 9/05 and doesn't look nearly as low budget as it was.
