Interesting, but Mysterious

I thought that the movie was mysterious. I had to watch it awhile before I understood what was going on. I think the movie was worth watching and the ending was truly a suspense to me. I had no idea of how the movie would end with two women married to one man and the neighbor getting involved with one of the wives. This is a movie that one has to stay focused on in order to get an understanding of what is happening during the scenes.

Hey buddy, you're two-timing me!!!

I found it unwatchable (and I love to watch Rebecca De Mornay). A B-film which is at the bottom line distressing, rather than disturbing. This latter is what I presume its makers wanted it to be. The cast is formidible, lead by the always extrodinary De Mornay, still an exquisite beauty at 39, and Mickey Rooker in a particularly, perhaps incredibly, sinister role. The film begs of the viewer a certain strained credulity in accepting the contrivances of this lousy script and the goings on - which are - to my eye - revolting. Yes. What these characters do to each other in this film - is - in a word - revolting - and difficult for me to understand: 1) why people enjoy watching this sort of negative human interaction in the first place? - and, 2) how they could possibly anticipate watching it? Although De Mornay and Rooker put on a good show of passion - the way Rooker's character is scripted - one wonders if a flesh and blood human being could actually exhibit and sustain deep passion from such seemingly shallow intentions. This contradiction is very uncomfortable, even more so to watch. The flow of the film is further hampered by the incessant drone of dirge-like music which combines with a heavy-handed, unintentionally bathic, sense of impending doom for one or another or all of the characters spelled out like alphabet soup in what one takes to be preminitory dream sequences - all of which makes one feel like reaching for the tums or at least the remote every five minutes or so - especially when Ms De Mornay is not revealing anew some feature of her magnificent anatomy or brilliantly articulating yet another aspect of the eternal feminine insecurity which our rapine and patricial society continues to engender, with and without remorse. She wants to be barefoot and pregnant. Get it?
