I saw an advanced screening of this film by the director who was a professor of mine at the University of Central Florida. She had invited anyone to stay after class one day to watch an almost completed version of the film in which we were asked to give notes and suggestions. Aleksa Palladino (Boardwalk Empire) gives a great performance as a nursing home orderly who suspects something unsettling is happening within the nursing home. The movie, like any small budget independent rookie feature, suffers some poor acting and production value but nothing that would turn you off from the story. Laura Lopez was always a great teacher and humble human being and is an intriguing director who will hopefully have a successful career ahead of her. I'm not sure if this movie is commercially available but it is worth a watch if you can find it.

this movie has it all. I saw it twice in 3 days. Excellent flick ....kills me in didn't finish in the top 10 ...it was sooo good. Sean Bateman, Lauren, and Paul are the 3 center characters. Paul wants Sean, Sean wants Lauren, and Lauren really wants Victor ...but would have settled for Sean since Victor was in Europe ....but Sean messes up ...in a hilarious and messed up look at college life at Camden ...The Rules of Attraction is a pre-quel to the film American Physco ...and was written for the screen and directed by Roger Avery ..who worked at the same video store as Tarantino and helped him write the stories in Pulp Fiction as well as some additional dialouge in Resavoir Dogs ....TROA is an excellent picture in its own ...I can't wait to see it a third time.

wow.... where do I begin? One of the greatest flicks I've ever seen. Lenny, as he liked to be called, is a man suffering from short term memory loss and is trying to find his wife's killer. The movie itself runs backwards. The opening parts of the movie is how you would normally see a movie end. You'll see about 4-5 minutes of a flashback, then the movie cuts to a side story of Lenny talking to someone on the phone about a man with the same condition as him named Sammy Jankis. Then it will go back to another flashback that happens right before the previous flashback and ends where the previous flashback began. Sound confusing? Well if you go into the movie knowing it goes backwards it's really easy to follow. You'll like the surprise beginning.
