Up all night to watch this one.

I've seen this movie more than once. It draws me in with its beguilingly casual erotic overtones and the charming sadness of the three small-town Floridian characters' deepening predicament. (I'm also fascinated with Florida and all of its faces, and this one was a new one for me.) Fairuza Balk is hot, and Will Patton is way cool. That other guy does a nice job as well. See it, and don't expect Gone With The Wind, just relax and enjoy.
