I have to say that it started off a tad creepy - with Jason Ritter's character practically stalking Marianna's, down to lying about the death of a family member just to get close to her. If it wasn't for the fact that she was as damaged as he was, I would think it's time to get a restraining order. But somehow the film starts to make it okay that he's acting this way - because we sense that she needs him, she needs this at this point in her life.
This is not the tie-up-the-loose ends type of film, and we just get a glimpse into what's made them who they are (for better or worse). It's a the kind of film that's about the first step towards recovery. It's a charming little film with some really nice intense moments and some wonderful dark comedy. Marianna Palka is just plain stellar - I hope to see more from her.
