Dale: [as he avoids looking at her body] Grow up, Andy. So what's she like, this chick, huh? Does she talk like you?
Andrew: [softly] I suppose so.
Dale: You can look at me, Andy. Mm. You've never been to a strip club?
Andrew: No, I haven't.
Dale: So, how long has she been away?
Andrew: Six months.
Dale: You don't worry she's got her legs wrapped around some other guy by now?
Andrew: No. She's not like that.

Featured review
This is a good film typified by excellent acting, three interesting characters, a dark ambiance and a twist in the tale.
While there are the usual moans about the typical movie style plot extension - where no-one is ever killed outright, they have to make a meal out of it- it is superior to most modern films in that it relies on the story and acting rather than explosions, explicit violence or other shock tactics.
I had ever seen any of the three stars before but all three are names to watch.
Well worth watching!
