Once I put a movie in my queue, I forget about it, and when
this showed up in my mail box the other day I wondered what I had been smoking
(second hand) when I ordered it! Not my usual movie, but once it started, I saw
why I ordered it—Peter Dinklage. He probably doesn't have 10 minutes film time,
but he steals what he has. This is not a new idea, boy meets girl, boy lies to
impress her, boy finds he loves her, boy is conflicted—continue to live the
lie, or fess up? Think remake of Cyrano de Bergerac and Roxanne. Like those two
movies, this one is somewhat predictable, but for non-caloric brain candy, it's
OK. Grab a glass of your favorite libation, and give the guns, swords, violence
of the world a rest. Oh, and did I mention Peter Dinklage is in it?
