75A "Chekhovian" movie that's closer to the master's mood than many, it's also a jazzy, rainy day film that makes serious and amusing points about life and people in the midst of its downpour.
-
A quiet, thoughtful film about isolation and separation.
-
60Meredith has woven together a half-dozen portraits of contemporary lives-on-the-edge in this quietly searing drama.
-
The real subversion is director Michael Meredith's insistence on not capturing interactions between human beings in a frame; with some forethought he could have filmed the actors individually and spliced.
