    off the top, i'm gonna shamelessly simp for a moment:

    nicole rodenburg is annoyingly hot. and funny. there are three or four moments where she made me truly lol ('i was just doing that as a joke' hahaha). she's only got a smattering of credits on imdb. she should be an indie superstar & sex symbol.

    the other actress is great too. though i kept getting distracted by how much she reminded me of tallie medel.

    i've seen 3 dean peterson…

    black and white.
    60 minutes.
    nick cave on the soundtrack. & grinding, industrial boyd rice-ish score.
    a bit of eraserhead/eyes of my mother style imagery.
