Curiosidades
Director Jonathan Smith often jokes that this film is "edited within an inch of its life." Indeed, between the first and final cuts of the film, he excised 14 minutes of footage, moved numerous scenes to different places in the story, reduced certain scenes to just two or three shots, and re-edited entire sequences in ways that were significantly different from the shooting script. The audio for many of the actors' line readings was often Frankenstein'ed together from numerous takes, sometimes with even single words cut into the middle of a line. Additionally, the film is filled with special effects shots that are hidden to the naked eye. In one instance, Jonathan even cut out an actor's head and superimposed it over the actor's body earlier in the scene to reduce a pause between two lines and thus shorten the scene.

A Gem

This "love-gone-wrong" story shines. The script rings real, the characters are authentically human, and the narrative momentum is completely effective. Trevor St John David is pitch-perfect as the Kyle, the male lead, through whose pov the story is told. He is modern and believable: capable of higher love, and also of being harmed by love. The pacing, dialogue, and narrative devices all mix together well without too much or too little of anything, like a great recipe, and the flavor is genuinely absorbing and good for your heart. There are some fun devices but mostly this is just excellent writing, a very, very good ear, and some fine performance. Jonathan Smith had a vision; he drew it for you with a sure hand. He is a damned fine story-teller, a talented director and editor (he self-edited), and you will enjoy this film.
