And I don't say this, just because I was an extra on it, 'cause during filming it seemed rather messy, didn't know where the story went, etc. But I was really positive about the outcome. It's not a "big" film, and to the other poster: It was made on a VERY small budget, even for a Danish film, so of course it could never be on par with the big blockbusters who have gazillions of $ in their backs. I think it shows some rather poignant things about love, life and death, But see for yourself, don't just take my word for it. I don't think the writer/director tried to make an "artsy" film, I think he just tried to tell an every day-story.

ads-1212 April 1999Another film that tries hard to be like "Short Cuts". But Robert Altman is a talented writer/director and Julianne Moore, Matthew Modine, Jennifer Jason Leigh etc. are great actors. Not so in this little film. It may seem "artsy" because of being shot in black/white but the plot suffers from the same problems as the worst mainstream films: unoriginal story and flat characters. The dialogue and the actors are pretty unconvincing.
