It's been a while since I've seen a movie that has dialog so compelling that it can be the core of the entire movie. I can hardly believe how drawn I was to what was going on between the main characters - all while knowing that the plot very limited.
Basically, the movie is about 2 middle-aged adults who reconnect after more than 10 years at a wedding. This movie follows their very candid conversation over the next 12 or so hours.
While not a whole lot happens plot-wise in the movie, the dialog is so intense and infused with provocative innuendo that everything that does happen ends up having a significant impact on the viewer. The buildup to everything that occurs is so different than in other movies that one has to credit the director, script/story writers and actors for the brilliant result.
The movie uses split screen format to show you two angles of the same scene or two totally different scenes (like the current scene and a flashback). With such a limited plot and visual material, doing something like this helps to make the film more visually interesting.
If your open to watching a movie built on very clever relationship-oriented dialog between two people, definitely check this movie out. It's better than it sounds.
