Add Synopsis
Storyline
In New York's storied Chelsea Hotel, a novelist, a dancer, a painter, a poet, an aged jazz singer, and a young troubadour sort out their personal and artistic lives within walls haunted by the likes of Dylan Thomas, O. Henry, and Sarah Bernhardt. A boozy novelist balances wife, mistress, and stories. A dancer who's a waitress in the basement club chooses between a Hollywood jerk and a local painter. A youth from Minnesota who composes and sings may be the next Bob Dylan. A poet decides to give her feckless boyfriend another chance, even as her eyes tell us she knows what's ahead. An old jazz artist wants to place a bet and share his love for Lady Day. These walls do seem to talk. Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>

A literary style, namely poetry, make this energetic and non-linear
movie a real joy to take in; the mixing of sounds and dialogues or
monologues also follow a poetic and jazz-like bee-bop approach.
The characters presented are very real and yet also seems like
phrases in a continually changing musical piece. The DV'ography is just beautiful, some of the most tasteful and
downright pleasurable work I've ever seen in these video-to-film
times...Tom Richmond and Richard Rutkowski have really set a
new standard with this movie, where the form (digital video)
doesn't intrude on the content, but rather complements (and even
compliments!) the tones and textures of the story. Ethan Hawke
did a great job with the actors and the story, I totally recommend
this movie.
