Nastassja Kinski Written and directed by Neil LaBute. They use the language of sharing and caring when it suits them, but only to their own ends. The movie looks at sexual behavior with a sharp, unforgiving cynicism. And yet it's not really about sex. It's about power, about forcing your will on another, about having what you want when you want it.
Sex is only the medium of exchange.
LaBute is merciless. In this film, the trick is played on all the characters, by the society that raised and surrounded them. They've been emotionally short-changed and will never hear a lot of the notes on the human piano. In both cases, the second film reveals the full scope of the talent, and the director, given greater resources, paints what he earlier sketched. Of course they have fashionable exteriors.
