Too long for the available story line, wrong actors

Rating: 4/10 (11 July 2000)

I kept looking at the counter on the VRC and wondering how long it would be until I could see where the film made meaning. I can see how the director was intrigued by the question of fidelity in a relationship, and the question if a day-dream was more or less threatening to a relationship than actively pursuing a fantasy and failing.
For me the film did not work because it was set amongst the seriously wealthy and beautiful people living a life that has no resembles to mine. Within that "Dallas" like setting problems and moral dilemmas simply do not appear real. The lack of reality was heightened by the inclusion of scenes who were completly unnecessary for the advancement on the story.
The 2 1/2 hours of footage could well be cut into a standard movie dealing with the moral dilemma, and a one hour tits and ass "C"-grade movie.
Sorry, Stanley Kubriecek, I expected a lot more of you.
