Beth: [wielding a camcorder, making home movie] Nick, the movers are gonna be here any minute!
Nick: I know.
Beth: [narrating] This is where it all began. Two years ago, they were all but complete strangers. Who would have thought that a couple of margaritas and one night of bliss on this imported rug would lead to... "darling, won't you marry me?"
[he is busy typing]
Beth: Come on, Nick, we have to meet the real estate agent to give us the keys to the warehouse.
Nick: Just a sec.
Beth: [narrating:] Nicholas Taylor, believed by most people to be a writer of serious fiction, but in actuality, he's the owner of the wildly successful new night club, Zex House.
Nick: [incredulous] Zex House?
Beth: Mr. Taylor, I hear you have big plans for this new night spot. Can you tell us about them?
Nick: Hang on, I'm almost finished with this chapter. You know how I work better under pressure.
Beth: Here we have it. From fiction to fact, art versus business, can he do it? Or will success spoil Mr. Taylor?
Nick: Come here, read this.
Beth: Read it? What if I don't like it?
Nick: You'll like this. It has a happy ending.
Beth: [he caresses her as she reads] "For the past two years, they had shaped their love in the confines of these walls. Now he believed they could make it. But even if he didn't, in their hearts they would always carry the imprint of their romantic maneuvers." This is a happy ending?
Nick: Oh, there's more.
Beth: No, there isn't.
Nick: Yeah.
[there isn't, but he adds:]
Nick: He looks into her eyes with a sincerity he hasn't felt since he was fifteen, in love for the first time.
[leading to their passionate kiss]
Sadly, this is a tedious, slow paced and excessively talky drama from b-movie purveyors Crown International Pictures. It's a very basic film indeed with the limited ambition and budget pretty seriously evident at all times. It seemed to consist primarily of scenes involving lead actor Nicholas Hoppe, who is a truly terrible actor. His annoying performance drives this one into the ground and you will be doing extremely well to be in the least bit bothered about what happens to him or his club. There's little in the way of thrills to be found here besides some gangsters threatening Hoppe's character and some not very interesting soft-core sex scenes. It was so tiresome that I glazed over towards the end and zoned out so completely that the next thing I noticed was the night club was up and running and events ending sweetly for Hoppe. So in my half-asleep state, I clearly must have missed some key action that got us to this happy conclusion. I can't help but feeling I didn't miss very much though and just accepted that it all must've ended well for Hoppe somehow – at least it ended well for someone because if you sit through this I daresay you'll not feel so clever by the conclusion.
