This had an odd film to it that reminded me of Harold and Maude in tone. It does not really fit in any category which is always a good thing in my book. That said it didn't work on a complete level. I had problems with the boyfriend and I found it hard to believe the way he responded to her sleeping with dead people from the start. I expected him to be a little more horrified. I also didn't believe his outcome but I suppose it was always going to happen. Molly Parker was simply great and it was such a difficult role to pull off but she does it admirably. I really believed her and this world she ventured into. It manages to make a taboo subject seem quite fascinating which in itself is groundbreaking. I think it does stand true that if the sexes were switched then audiences would indeed have trouble swallowing the story but this way round it is more acceptable. Well that's the double standard thing again. Thought provoking and sensual. I take away from this Parker's performance more than anything, without her I think the film would be consigned to the annals of history.
