A film like this is a dance. If one changes the step, the other must follow. Both pay close attention to one another. It is the actors & also the script. Gradually you start getting to know them better & get involved so that you get impatient by the end.
Two total strangers, so they can’t be together . Yet now what will they do, you want to know! Sheila O’Malley gives it a 3 and half star.
Every minute is worth watching.
