    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In a March 2001 interview with "Shout" magazine, Fairuza Balk stated that out of all her films, this was her favorite. She indicated that "this film is very close to my heart. As a girl, I was very much like my character Shade. I was shy. I was a loner."
    • Goofs
      When Trudi first attempts to call her dad in the beginning of the movie, the dolly can be seen in the toaster oven.
    • Quotes

      Raymond: [barely playing along as if they were strangers] So, what line of work are you in, Miss Evans?

      Nora: Oh please, call me Nora.

      Raymond: Nora. Nora, Nora...

      Nora: I'm a brain surgeon, mainly. How 'bout you?

      Raymond: I'm a grave digger myself. Um, digging my own as we speak. Rapidly.

      Nora: Well that makes two things you do quick.

    Guys ought to stay away from this one.

    I watched this with several guy friends and they all hated it after 10 minutes. I liked this film a lot, even if it didn't have a plot. Ione Skye and Fairuza Balk are really good in this film. Give this one a shot, you might be surprised.

    One thing that was disconcerting was the way Allison Anders made this film. It almost seems like the incidents of the film go day after day, and you really can't tell that time has passed at all. But otherwise it's pretty good. 3/5 stars.
