Worth Watching

A very surreal looking film. Interesting colours and tones and deliberate filming car scenes over a filmed background.

In essence it is about relationships and long-term grief ... and scrabble.

It is worth a watch.

Trivia
The film is based on a short story called Triple Word Score, written by the script writer Frank Cottrrel Boyce.

Goofs
When Alan claims that "jazz" is a high-scoring word in Scrabble, a character corrects him by stating it's impossible to play since there's only one Z tile in the set. In reality, this word is indeed playable using "wild card" tiles. If using J, A, and Z tiles and a wild card tile in place of the other Z, the word would be a high-scoring word worth a minimum of 19 points.
