African American Willie Spearmint (Snoop Dog) is using the quite space to come to terms with his violent and socially oppressed past. The two men live in the building and work with and against each other to create their own specific stories. As distrust grows between the men, the uneasy friendship falls to the wayside and is replaced by jealousy, rage and violence. Based on the novel by Bernard Malamud. -
MCT:May 23, 2007Alternately tedious and bombastic, the film never achieves a consistent tone, and the characters and situations, while seemingly played on a realistic level, are neither remotely credible nor satisfyingly surreal.

MCT:April 10, 2007A group of friends, mostly artists, rents a house, and they live as a sort of impromptu commune. The group includes the motherly poet, Ida, the painter, Mitra, the 'herbalist', Wiley, the communist lesbian, Glinda, and the kindly and generous Ali. Rounding out the group is Oskar, a local, who is tired of bar fights and has decided to join the group as a pacifist. Oskar's old friends chide him for hanging out with the 'freak show' but he dismisses them. The commune has fallen upon hard times and they are two months behind in the rent, with no relief in sight. Ali, who often takes it upon himself to pay the landlord, has impulsively given most of his savings to a local girl, whom he barely knows, so that she can go home to India to be married. The landlord, Mr. Ross, shows up with his henchman and berates poor Mitra and Oskar, threatening them with eviction. At an emergency meeting, the members of the commune argue about going to work. Mitra, who doesn't want to be in charge, suggests that they all work for a short time. Glinda, who is madly in love with some girl she had followed a few days before, flat out refuses to get a job. "I refuse to be the hamster on the wheel like everyone else," she says. The tenants try to get jobs, drink wine, and party until one of them comes up with a novel solution.

I only really wanted to see this for Snoop in a serious role. The truth of it is, he's still Snoop. Not much changed even though the movie was set in 1972. Pretty average movie.

MCT:August 5, 2006this was quite a ride, didnt know quite what to expect in this, but the gradually deep plot grows on you with an ending that was a bit of WTF but great all the same

The acting was great. But the story line was just so strange, and not in my typically enjoyed strangeness. Worth a watch though, just to see Snoop's acting.
