I happened to see the San Jose Cinequest screening (2002) and loved it. It has a most unpromising premise: two escapees from a mental institution steal a camcorder to make a movie (the film you see is essentially the movie they made), and the early scenes make you wonder whether there's any hope at all for this pair of children-in-adult-bodies. But once they decide to help a suicidal prostitute, the movie takes a left turn into a deeper level of meaning and sensitivity that takes you unawares. It's not a film with universal appeal: it doesn't shy away from gritty realism, though the violent moments are implied rather than shown. But ultimately i thought it was entertaining and worthwhile.
