Sharp-witted young actors, especially those willing to come off as supreme assholes, are rare gems. So it's thrilling... read more on Time Out
Film write up didn't prepare me for the depth of this film - thought it was going to be a girlie sunday afternoon type movie, but far from it. Very realistic acting and script involving woman reliving relationship she felt she had been robbed of in the past and how this has affected her relationships since. Strong support from small cast.
A truly thought provoking film, not nearly as simplistic as the synopsis implies but an in depth account of what one's future can look like if you don't give up the past.
Dylan Kidd breaks awayfrom his Indie kid debut with 'the difficult second film' and goes in a completely different direction. He directs his actors with finesse creating poignant and touching scenes, and brings the best out of actors not necessarily known for their heavyweight performances like Gabriel Byrne or Topher Grace. Of course Laura Linney is outstanding but for once she has a cast that can stand upto her.
I think this is a film that I would recommend to just about anyone and Dylan Kidd is a director to keep your eyes firmly on, I expect a long and diverse career ahead!
