Steve Buscimi gets props for discovering this movie and re-releasing it. At first I wanted to punch it in the face, but then I started to get into it. It sort of turned into a psychological thriller. In every scene things got more complex and the conflict became more advanced, which was a conflict like none other. Is the director doing all this on purpose? Are some of these characters paid actors? Some of them seemed to be to opinionated that they must be 'playing a part', but then again it comes off very believable. In the end, when you at first thought the director was an aloof bimbo, may in fact be in control of everything. Then, when the homeless man came, it just put the icing on the cake. It added humor to it all, which was a good way to finish such a rediciulous plot. -steve wright

Thank you for articulating your feelings about this film so artfully. When I first started watching this film, I didn't know how to describe how I felt about it, but "I wanted to punch it in the face" pretty much nails it. The premis at the begining of the film feels pretty thin and confusing, but the deeper you go into the film, the more you realize how sucked into it you've become. Is there anything Steve Buschimi cant do?
Wow. I had no idea that this was re-released by buscemi. Looking back on it, that kind of makes sense, considering his role in a similarly reflexive film about film making, living in oblivion.
