      In the scene at the bus station David is supposed to be in Washington D.C. As the cab is pulling away you see a traffic sign for US Highways 61 & 190. This intersection and the bus station are actually in Baton Rouge, LA and not in Washington D.C.

    Unsure of what I just saw!
    I just watched this Screener and was very disappointed. The plot and direction this movie took was all over the place. The actors have all done great work in the past but I was not able to identify with them at all. The director must not have been available at editing because it was lagging and at times I looked at my watch waiting for a story to surface. The story had potential but in my eyes it fell short in so many ways. I will understand why this is not picked up by many theaters. I don't mean to be harsh. There are some good points. Shots of D.C are done very well. The soundtrack was decent. Although in a few scenes the music does not mix with what you see. I hope everyone involved in this movie enjoyed themselves because I will be very shocked if it has a long shelf life.
