Reminded me somewhat of "Falling Down", 6 January 2003
7/10
Author: hoserhound from Washington State, USA

This is a good little flick that caught my eye because of the supposed starring role of Nick Stahl who I think is a great young actor. Unfortunately, he played a very small role in the film, but it was a good film none the less.

Igby Walters is a motion picture Sound man who is just a little too involved in his job to the point where he alienates everybody around him including the director (Wes Studi), the star (Nick Stahl), and a gaffer (John Koyama) among others. He also has a weird relationship with a neighbor girl who is a violinist he promises a job in the movie to and another woman who is his sleeping with that works with him. Things continue to go against Igby until he finally snaps and the movie really begins. You'll have to watch his life spiral downwards to see what happens next in this desperate man's attempts at reconciliation

Very good film, different, and definitely worth watching. 7/10
