    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Director Jonathan Smith often jokes that this film is "edited within an inch of its life." Indeed, between the first and final cuts of the film, he excised 14 minutes of footage, moved numerous scenes to different places in the story, reduced certain scenes to just two or three shots, and re-edited entire sequences in ways that were significantly different from the shooting script. The audio for many of the actors' line readings was often Frankenstein'ed together from numerous takes, sometimes with even single words cut into the middle of a line. Additionally, the film is filled with special effects shots that are hidden to the naked eye. In one instance, director Jonathan Smith even cut out an actor's head and superimposed it over the actor's body earlier in the scene to reduce a pause between two lines and thus shorten the scene.

    Low budget? Yes! Marginal acting? Yes!

    But the scenes are so well edited that just as you start to get a little bored with one scene it changes to keep you watching - in my opinion. Not the best acting nor the greatest script but Trevor St. John David portrayal as Kyle gets you wondering whats going on in his head in his obsession with Amber. Amy Vorpahl as Amber creates a character that is somewhere between charming and psychologically damaged as she uses Kyle for her own self interest and her inability to give back. Kyle suffers and she really doesn't care.

    The psychiatrist scenes are all about Kyle and his refusal to look inward to understand why Amber has such a hold upon him and theses scenes certainly help the story move along to the next episode in Kyles relationship with Amber. This movie is listed as a comedy drama but I see it as just a light drama as the laughs are few.

    If you are into looking into dysfunctional relationships between supposed 'lovers' this story will keep you interested.
