Saw it at the Philadelphia Gay and Lesbian Film Festival.
The other reviewers have really done a good job giving various views of the plot, but what no one has mentioned yet is how well silence is used in this film, and this is something I love about this movie. As much is said with subtle body language and periods of silence as is said with words. Also, it seemed to me that a good deal of the dialogue had double-meanings, which makes for good mind candy.
I would also say this is right on the border of being an art-film, but I wouldn't say it actually makes it into art-film territory.
I loved it, will watch it again, and will probably buy the DVD, although it wasn't as laugh-out-loud funny as I expected, and would recommend it to pretty much anyone who has ever enjoyed a quiet movie.
