Disappointment.
Great casting, no story for a long piece. Really long, tried to be something more, but the length was overwhelming. Fell asleep for 15 min and didn't lose anything as I continued to watch..... Could have been made into short film, a much shorter film. Franco brooding, sans dialogs pieces, didn't go.he does this well. Looking pasty and attractive..
The music at points was obtrusive and disgracing. Visually it was pretty to watch, the coloring, beautiful exterior shots, but not for this long.The movie left me with nothing....

This is a movie that is beautiful with photography and that is the only positive thing I can say about it.
This film could have been great with the cast it has. James Franco does a great job of the brooding, James Dean like character. Josh Lucas as the dark, controlling bad guy is very good. Freckled Julianne Nelson is beautiful as the femme fatale, but the director seems to be attempting to imitate a good french movie but just fails.
If you like minutes long scenes of an actor's face, a room, an actor walking, you might enjoy this film. If it was condensed to a half hour drama, it might be great. Otherwise, it is not worth the time.

I give this a solid 7 out of 10 due to the fact that it was, in my eyes, a very original film full of emotion and body-language.
A must see art film.
James Franco shines in this subtle film that puts you through different moral standing that will make you ask, "why would he do that?", just as the characters in the story are asking Franco's character. Shot with a "real-world" aspect this plot lays in front of you waiting to be uncovered just as the end will lay in your thoughts.
If you have ever felt out of place or different in this crazy world take a look through this genuine character's eyes.

This film is a tragedy in its truest sense: tragedy in dramaturgy is sometimes defined as "potential not realized". With this great cast and crew, this director & producers should be shot for making the film stock worth so much more before it was shot.
James Franco is too good an actor to be used, misused and abused in a film like this. His teacher should not have cashed the favor on this film.
The only thing that is more boring, than the boring life of the main character, is the film itself. Telling the story of a boring character does not have to be boring. This film does not know the difference.
The ultimate irony lies in the fact that Franco plays a "film editor" -- this film if edited correctly could perhaps make an interesting 15 minute thriller -- and I am being generous.

This movie is different. It does have some recognizable names in it and it might sound intriguing. But it might also bore you to death. Saying this was moving at a snails pace would be an exaggeration. Some people might call this "Artsy", some will call it waste of time. It's tough to say what corner you'll be belonging to.
But you will be able to tell, where your feeling about the movie lie, after a couple of minutes. Though you might not always be able to tell what the characters feel at any given minute. There was a very irritating scene with James Franco, where he is being asked things (mostly about his emotional state). It almost looks like he's about to crack up and laugh. Not something that seems fitting considering the situation he's in. That might be over analyzing, but watching this movie will bring this sort of thinking out of you
