A curious and affecting film, made by, and starring, identical (though not conjoined) twins and making the point, understated though it is, that seemingly ordinary people are frequently the real freaks.
Sensitive and decidedly offbeat.... The brothers are as persuasive behind the camera as in front of it, and Michael's careful direction of Hicks yields from her a most promising debut performance...
The Polish Brothers are the most underrated team of filmakers. Like their later 'Northfork' ,this film takes you deep into the psyche of the characters. The story works on many levels and theit will make you lagh occasionally, cry a bit more often and really get you to think about perception, love and value Reminiscent of Boxing Helena with a pace that brings to mind the tense and slow tempo of some of David Lynch's mesmerising scenes this is a masterful movie. Unique and finely-crafted it is not to be missed.
