The first story was relatively interesting and then went downhill.

Not my cup of tea. I don't mind

Not my cup of tea. I don't mind the short stories, but other that the fact the three women are having troubles in part due to their upbringing, the stories do not inter-relate at all.

Rebecca Miller's second feature movie is just what

Rebecca Miller's second feature movie is just what you would expect to win awards at a Sundance festival (if you can take those ‘styles' you may be somehow ‘entertained') Others can expect to sit through very roughly sketched plotlines - in this case, it's three shallow stories about women that don't particularly link up well or offer any satisfactory resolutions. The photography by Ellen Kuras consists of shaky (cheap and trendy) video handheld shots, mostly taken with the zoom lens on extreme tight --producing a nauseating wobble cam-- with the operator attempting to frame the subject within a rocky, sea-sick making image. The crass, sensationalistic situations and course dialogue are mostly drawn from the perspective of modern, disenfranchised immature females - with some of the title characters preferring to live out female fantasies (even when in successful relationships of their own making), actions that predictably lead to utter chaos. All these women are quite unbelievably devoid of the ability to learn from any obvious life experiences or moral convictions. It's difficult to fully sympathise with these somewhat sordid characters or feel all that much empathy for their all too obvious and inevitable outcomes. Performances are OK with Michael Rohatyn supplying a cute minimalist main theme. Rebecca's Dad, Arthur Miller, may have been a notable and worthy writer but that's clearly not always guaranteed to transfer to the offspring. Strictly for undemanding viewers of the ‘type'- others will give up within the first 15 mins and be better off.
