Overview
A man and woman are drawn together, entangled in the lifecycle of an ageless organism. Identity becomes an illusion as they struggle to assemble the loose fragments of wrecked lives.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Carlin noted that at other times it is a big brown… well, you know. That’s kind of how I felt about this movie. It takes half the movie to get an idea as to what all of the weirdness on screen meant. That’s all well and good – I love to piece it all together. The payoff? Not so much. Unfortunately the film was rather…. literal.
