High Heels and Low Lifes
Supremely silly and entirely entertaining,High Heels and Low Lifesbegins with a high-tech bank robbery--into the middle of which stumble  Shannon (Minnie Driver) and Frances (Mary McCormack), who have gone out  and gotten drunk because Shannon's boyfriend forgot her birthday. Thanks  to this same boyfriend's surveillance equipment (on which he was creating  his "urban noise symphony installation"), they end up with a cell phone  number belonging to one of the thieves and decide to experiment with  blackmail--an experiment that soon gets them into deep trouble. None of  this is remotely plausible, but the breezy script keeps taking surprising  twists, Driver and McCormack are an engaging duo (and they run to and fro  in tight, stylish outfits), and the movie is directed with flair. Fun,  frivolous, and unexpected.--Bret Fetzer
