Stephanie, a restless and vibrant actress, meets Gerard, an NYPD counter-terrorism specialist who’s an aficionado of experimental theater (and maybe out of his mind). Flirtation ensues, ends disastrously, and forces Stephanie to the ramshackle home of musician Eleanor Friedberger, a supposed escape infected by violent memories of her past life.
16mm手持；捕捉情绪的流动
【3.0】对影片无法产生情感共鸣，就像罗斯派瑞的片子一样，它充斥着一股挥之不去的小资气，但导演又显然无法做到罗斯派瑞那样利用小资气质来做剧本戏剧性的编排。大抵值得肯定的地方是影像的做旧，从画面质感、镜头风格到选角，都往复古地去设计，恍惚间有70、80年代电影的观感。
65/100，确有典型的NYC独立作派，即兴感与标志性的对话。粗砺的16mm摄影常常以紧凑的景别呈现，因而混乱和焦虑是由内而外的，类型化也永远是好尝试。
