I don't know who Jude Bauman is; perhaps this is his first feature. I do know that it's pretty boring and the time did not fly by. I wonder if Miss Jodorowsky is related to the man who made El Topo and The Holy Mountain back in the 60's. Alexandre Mesguich is probably the son of Daniel Mesguich, an actor whose work I enjoyed years ago.
The story is pretty dull: two girls sharing an appartment are financially strapped and having a tough time making the rent. A succession of prospective roommates parades by (think of Single White Female) finally Mesguich gets the nod. He turns out to be a possessive troll with some really bad instincts. So much for the plot. The performances are minimal--the two women show very little talent--and the direction is non-descript. Best to ignore this one.

This movie all around was really good and right to the point it wasn't confusing in any way or misleading. It's definitely one of those films that I would recommend because the acting was good. The overall production was very well and the storyline was original in its own unique way. The beauty in independent films is shown when the entire cast and crew believes in the project. Overall, I gave this film two thumbs up because it kept my attention engaged and there weren't dull moments involved in anyway I for one I'm looking forward to some of the other projects that this Director has in store because it's new its storyline is creative and the finished product is meaningfu. Gets two thumbs up.
