Jason Ritter plays a lonely video store clerk who sleeps in his car. He starts stalking and hounding a recluse (Marianna Palka) who rents soft-core porn from the store. She is haunted by her past and keeps pushing everybody away. He is relentless in his courtship and willing to make up big lies to connect with her.
This is an off-kilter indie. It's trying to be lovably quirky with some dark material. The characters have serious problems. It's not your average romance. It's a good effort for first time writer/director Marianna Palka. It would be more compelling if the tone is even darker. I don't think the movie could be lighter in tone. It's an interesting movie that doesn't completely work.
