Wishful Thinking
Synopsis
A story told from three angles. Max meets Elizabeth; they live together, but when she talks of marriage, he balks. He becomes extremely jealous, probably without cause, and thinks she's taken up with a friend of his, Jack. Elizabeth, stung by Max's refusal to marry, catches Jack's eye, but the friendship seems innocent. Lena, who works with Max, likes him and realizes she can manipulate his jealousy and maybe engineer his split from Elizabeth. When she's sure Elizabeth is with a man, she calls Max at work, sending him home to confront the lovers. Then, Lena feels guilty and takes off for Max's apartment. What's really going on? Who's with Elizabeth?

People who cameo in the film are billed above the actual main stars. And the last ten minutes are in black and white with the rest in colour. Says it all really.

(Some) cool ideas, (mostly) shitty execution.
The characters are just dumb and annoying. For the most part. and since the plot is kind of based an those characters....:(
And why the fuck would you ruin a long take (which kinda is always a cool thing) by dubbing the fuck out of it???It actually got better towards the end, probably due to John Stewart and Jennifer Beals having chemistry, because they're just very cool actors. And played the only two not that dumb, annoying and shittily written characters.
About that random score...well, I don't even know what to say about that. :/
