 | This is a GREAT little indie. It has a fairly simple plot which sends the characters running around NYC one night at Christmas time - each with his or her own misunderstanding of what is going on. The dialogue is warm and witty and the actors are wonderful. There is not one bad perfomance in this film. Campbell Scott and the late Katrin Cartlidge make a very enagaging duo as they spar and flirt their way through the evening. Eric Stoltz is a great warm-hearted heel and Kelly gets a chance to deliver some great one-liners and zingers that give her character a real zest. This is the kind of small, sweet, funny film that doesen't get made that often and when they do - rarely this well. Spend and hour and a half with this one and make some new friends. I have honestly ended up curled up on the couch watching this more times than I ever imagined. Get it! |

| I watched this movie ...and once it finished I decided I had to log on to Amazon and buy it up. This film is so well done, from the characters, the actors, the dialogue and the stories. A pure enjoyment to watch. I hope everyuone sees it at least once. |

| This film is so good! The dialogue is very clever, and the actors fit the characters well. (Meaning each actor was perfect for the role. The casting department really did their job well for this film) You will love all the characters, from Jimmy the dishonest struggling actor, Minor the thug wanna-be, Fatty the bookie who happens to be whipped by his wife, and my personal favorite, Simon the Jewish Santa. (Played by Dean Cameron, what a surprise :) This is a great film! Buy it! |

| This film is smart and funny and low-key. It is set in actual bars in New York City's upper west side, so I felt a little nostalgic looking at places I used to go to, now that I live on the west coast. There are various twists and turns and various actors show up and then dissappear. There's a lot going on, and everyone is trading insults the whole time. Campbell Scott is great as always in the lead. |

| What a great movie! If you like 'dialouge' movies, definitely see this one! The script is clever and has a very New York feel to it. I forewarn everyone that this is not a screwball comedy. I repeat, this is not a screwball comedy. It does have comic moments, but the goal of this movie is not to have you on the floor laughing. The goal is simply to show you a day in the life of 'average' New Yorkers, and to point out that honesty is the best policy. To fully enjoy the film, I suggest you just sit back and relax, enjoy the comedy, enjoy the drama, enjoy the dialouge. |
