Greta is a sharp, spunky editor who is rotten "with ambition" despite her own intentions. To spite the hated infidel ways of her father, she has settled into a complacent relationship and is struggling (not too hard) with issues of fidelity to her kind but unexciting husband.

    superbemfeitinho. câmeras digitais sacolejantes com efeito "olha-só-o-que-eu-fiz-com-50-dólares". o mundo não despreza este filme tanto quanto eu achava (vendo pelas estrelinhas abaixo).

    hmm... I'm curious.. I notice that the second story ties in with the third (Parker Posey turns off the news which has a story on the hit and run).. and I seem to recall that Kyra Sedgwick's character hears it as well, but what exactly IS the connection between them? Was the guy that was killed the husband of the first one?... he looked familiar, but I couldn't tell.. if the third story was the tie in.. why make it last?.. I don't know..

    Seperately the stories are very intriguing.. I can understand where each character is coming from.. I feel for all of them.. each has a choice to make, and they do..

    Does this movie have a real point? I mean, I know it's full of lessons and real life and morals and all that required crap, but is there any sort of plot whatsoever? It was really good, easy to watch, gritty, and real, almost like it was made with a home video camera, but I really don't see what it was trying to achieve. The summary makes it seem like an epic movie that involves lots of self-growth and general character development, but we see none of that in this much too short movie. The only character we see go through something that has both a problem and a solution is Kevin (played by the talented Lou Taylor Pucci).
