As you might imagine from
the title, this is a quirky independent film. Danny (Noah Taylor) is an unemployed
Australian wanna be writer, and we follow him through different group living situations
with oddball roommates. In the first house, Danny's best friend Sam (Emily
Hamilton) begins a romance with Anya (Romane Bohringer), who organizes a pagan
ritual at the full moon. After Danny moves out, Sam shows up tearfully on his
new doorstep, leaving an emotionless relationship with Anya. She's looking for
affection, and the two of them make love. But the new couple doesn't last
long. Sam goes back with Anya, leaving Danny hurt. It gets more painful, though,
when Sam catches Anya and Danny kissing. Sam's had enough with both of them and
moves out. Boy does get girl in the end. We find out that Danny isn't as
much of a loser as the parade of roommates, and he and Sam end up together. Anya
just picks up with another seemingly straight female household resident (Sophie
Lee), who falls to her charms. Much of the rest of the film involves wacky
people in Danny's living space, most of which I didn't find that humorous. I'm
guessing this is more of a guy's film, although the lesbian relationship is handled
without a voyeur factor. |
