Storyline
Al McCord is hanging out at his favourite restaurant when he meets an attractive young woman (Ellie) who is looking for a ride from the city out into the Mojave Desert, where her mother lives. Little does he know that while Ellie is falling in love with him, he is falling for her mother (Julie), despite the nearby presence of Julie's boyfriend who seems likely to go berzerk at any moment. Even more strange, hilarious events follow and it's up to Al to find some explanation. His life may never again be the same. Written by

first lines - narration]
Ever get so bored with your life, you're afraid your gonna do something stupid? And then you get afraid you're so far gone you can't even think up something stupid to do any more? Well last year when my wife and I split up, I decided to leave New York, thought I'd go to Seattle. Then I remembered, Seattle has even more serial killers than Long Island. Add that to the big coffee house scene, and you got a town filled with psychopaths - who are always awake.

I think the film was o.k. and I liked the soundtrack but the film was a little cheesy and sometimes didn't make a whole lot of sense. I have seen the movie 4 times and it does continue to make me smile because of the wonderfully beautiful and talented actress Angelina Jolie, the only reason I watched the movie. It's about this older guy who moves to L.A. and meets this young beautiful girl. He drives her home to the Mojave desert, falls asleep with her mother, and wakes up to find a dead guy in his trunk. There wasn't enough emotion in the movie, like the girl (Ellie) never really cared that it was her boyfriend in the trunk, and her mother didn't care that it was her own boyfriend that put him there. Anyway if you like Angelina Jolie it's definitely worth a look..
