This is a deeply cynical and nasty movie about, for the most part, deeply cynical and nasty people. A lesson learned and in future I know to studiously avoid anything to do with Max Heller or Jay Devore - and for that matter just about any of the other male actors who appeared in this. It would be interesting to know what Rosanna Arquette, who at times I hoped might save this mess, made of the finished product. As someone else commented last year, she is the only positive thing about it. A movie to make your skin crawl.

This was probably THE WORST movie I've ever seen. For some reason it started playing while at my local nail salon. So I was basically FORCED to watch it. I was hopeful in the beginning when I saw Roseanna in it. Still beautiful as always. But that's the only positive thing about this movie. NONE of the characters are likable. In fact, you hate them! The son's scenes are awful. The ones with him and his "girlfriend" are down right horrendous. Plot was non existent, and the whole movie was basically torture. Don't waste your time!!

Max Heller is a talented wizard who managed to do a impeccably well produced and photographed film with a budget of 200,000. It is not only one of its amazing achievements. The casting is excellent, with outstanding performances by Rossana Arquette --finally back after the damage Harvey Weinstein inflicted on her career-- and Jay Devore. Originally written by Heller, it is a sophisticated and frantic romantic comedy shot in New York and Los Angeles. Refreshing and fun!

I wish I could give this piece of rubbish zero stars. It must have embarrassed Rosanna Arquette to play this part. Avoid this dreadful movie if possible.
