Arthur Blake (Sean Weathers) is a guy who wants it all, a good job, a
sexy wife, Rose (Stephany Ramirez), countless affairs, including one with
his best friend Pete's (Walliek
Crandall) wife Shelly (Anna Brown) - but now he has turned 30, his life
suddenly crumbles as he loses his job, his wife announces she's pregnant,
which couldn't have come at a worse time, his wife finds out about his
affairs, Pete finds out he's been sleeping with Shelly, his mom tells him
how disappointed she is of him, and the only answer he has to this is to
sleep with his successor at his job, the socialite wife (Kimberly Pellot) of his boss
who takes full advantage of him in return. Only gradually, and after his
sister (Okema Moore) has talked some sense into him, does Arthur come back
to his senses and starts to get his life back in order ... but by now,
Pete, who wants revenge on Arthur for sleeping with his wife, has started
lusting after Rose - and he might have a shot there ...
Very nice micro budget drama stylistically more reminiscent of
independent cinema from the 1970's than more recent indie fare, and
interwoven with a few quite strong sex scenes that are nevertheless never
self-serving but do drive the narrative along. What really makes the film
work though is that it gets its atmosphere just right so the audience can
really identify with the character even if he's not the most admirable of
persons.
Recmmended, actually!
