Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDirector Mark Tapio Kines ran out of funds shortly after filming wrapped in August 1997, leaving him unable to complete post-production. Thanks to his experience as a web designer he was able to create an official website for the film ("forcor.com") to spark interest among the Internet community. A year later the director had received $90,000 in investments from complete strangers (including fans of principal star Melanie Lynskey) and a further $60,000 from friends and acquaintances, enabling the film to finally be completed. The makers of The Blair Witch Project later employed a similar technique of using the Internet to market their film.
Featured review
slow, cliched and corny
A very pedestrian romantic movie - actually two short films that were put together. (It's obvious as the film moves along that they were conceptualized separately.) The acting is ok, but it's full of cliched characters and Wil Wheaton plays what is supposed to be a romantic, appears to be a demented stalker. Technically, the film is passable, thought the loud and very overly orchestrated music is way too much for such an indie film. The director seems like an assembler more than a leader by the plotting in this film.
