One short film script repeated three times in three different cities in the United States, Europe and Japan. The dialogue is identical in each, the plot plays out the violent and alienating repercussions of chronic flirtation and self-destructive covetousness. The subtle differences in each scenario are due (theoretically) to the changes in setting, sexual orientation and cultural backdrop. If you're a Hal Hartley fan you'll probably enjoy this film to some extent, if you're not then you may be easily put off by the repetition of what could be seen as stiff artsy banter. The dialogue is clever, sharp, witty - characteristically quirky Hal Hartley writing. But the first scenario, set in New York and involving Martin Donovan, Parker Posey and that other favorite Hal Hartley actor from Simple Men (Bill something), is easily the best of the three and the high point of the film. There's some really nice editing in this film, for those who have an interest in technical considerations.
