this is one of the greatest films I've ever seen. i saw it in a film class. jost has an amazing way with the camera, his cinematography borders on experimental, but the plot is fairly cohesive here. the acting is outrageous and outstanding, the characters are fascinating however unlikeable. there are wonderful expressionistic moments throughout, it really captures the narcissistic culture of the LA art scene of the time. but there's more there, there's the difficulty of trying to get ahold of his main character and really understand him. it's like cassavetes in that respect, no easy answers. chameleon is breathtaking and hopefully it will make it to DVD one day soon. it's sad that I'm writing the first review on IMDb, many more should know about this film. i know a VHS was available at one point... it's significantly better than all the vermeers.
