This movie has two of my favorite actors, presumably in top roles. That automatically makes it a must-see in my book.

I'm already getting ridiculously excited, too Love both these guys!

Love is a force of nature

haha i love the excited smiley kaysha xD

Agreed, I'm looking forward to this film, if Robin Williams isn't looking like making a decent drama anytime soon at least the prospect of a decent comedy makes up for it.

Why is this not a drama?

[–] Funkyzeit 15 years ago

It's a drama all right, just not a decent one.

Spacey was superb as usual and Williams very good but sadly underutilized.

I totally agree. Williams could have been so much more prominent. Most of the scenes with him were fantastic.

On the good side, I truly enjoyed the movie. It is definitely strange and off-beat. Kevin Spacey once again amazed me with his acting. There was one scene (I won't give a spoiler) where he and Jemma only said a word or two to each other, but you felt the undercurrent. Brilliant acting.

I got to see this one at Sundance, it was really quite good.

Yeah, this is the same as Spacey did in the movie Seven. No mention of him anywhere in the credits at all (beginning and ending) When I saw Robin Williams I was shocked! It's considered an Indie film and as far as the box office returns as posted on this board it must have lost much money. "Pro Bono" as mentioned in the movie must have also meant the cast and crew.

Ah, too bad they chose such a turkey.
