    • Quotes

      Ike: [about Ivan] You shouldn't have taken him out of that class. He needs looking after.

      Nana Kunning: I took care of it, Ike. He's in another class.

      Ike: Yea. He has feelings, Alana. He never comes first.

      Nana Kunning: He doesn't need to. It'll do him good to learn that.

    • Alternate versions
      When the film premiered in the Berlin Film Festival, two sex scenes featuring Melanie Laureant and Cillian Murphy were shown in it. The scenes were inexplicably cut from the U.S. theatrical release and are completely unavailable in home video as well. Another example of post-premiere censorship of independent films.

    Might need a second viewing
    I caught this movie halfway through. I was taken in and very intrigued but missing a lot, obviously. So I rewatched from the beginning and so glad I did. Some things might have been more confusing but I had seen further down so now I was understanding. It's definitely not a film for everyone. And I'm additionally annoyed that the US version is cut. However, all in all, I really did enjoy this film. I loved the actors and I thought they played their parts well. It does leave a lot open ended or up to interpretation and that can be frustrating. But I just can't stop thinking about it. I love those films that just stay with you and make you want to continue u deters ding and wrapping your mind around it.
