Comments: I really enjoyed the previous Radley Metzger film I watched, Score, so I was eager to check out some more of his work when I found a few of his films on Netflix. Unfortunately, this "erotic art house" film is entirely too art house; the pretentious scale is off the charts. We jump back and forth between present and past, partake in dream sequences that may or may not be real, and watch as one film strip is seen differently every time it's played. There's not a lot of fun in the film like there was in Score, and that's probably the most unfortunate aspect. I really should've watched Best Worst Movie.
