8/10
two thirds of a good movie
20 October 2003
The first hour of this movie is excellent.

It deals with themes like how sexual orientation affects personality and vice versa in a way that's intelligent and accessible. It's fascinating to watch how the butch/femme roles are played around with in a lesbian relationship between a high powered music agent and a feral rock chick. It's filmed sparsely, almost all the scenes shot in one room, placing a lot of pressure on the actors, who handle it quite well. Towards the end they aren't served very well by a script in which one of them breaks down in a way that's not very believable.

It's a pity, as it was really enthralling up till then.
