Scorecard (0-10)

Actors:

Oscar Martinez as Leonardo: A celebrated playwright at loose ends, Leonardo is having problems working, reading, and judging reality. Martinez plays him straight, to the point where judging what’s “real” and “fake” becomes problematic. Though the story was interesting, it was also a bit confusing a times; especially trying to figure out what Leonardo’s motivations were. He seemed more a bundle of quirks walking blindly through the film then a realized character. I can’t say whether that »

Leonardo likes to go to the dentist. He's not a pain freak like Jack Nicholson in "The Little Shop of Horrors."

It's just that Leonardo (Oscar Martinez), a middle-age Argentine playwright, has lust in his heart for his foxy young dentist, who has a way of brushing his cheek with her breast while she probes inside his mouth.

Leonardo and his still-hot wife, bleached-blonde Martha (Cecilia Roth), are going through late-life crises after the last of their three children at home marries an Israeli guy and leaves Buenos Aires.
