A depressed young man’s life is turned around after he moves back in with his parents in Brooklyn and two women enter it – a beautiful volatile neighbor trapped in an affair and the lovely daughter of a close family friend. The third film from the actor/director team of Phoenix & Gray following the acclaimed We Own the Night and The Yards (which screened at AFF 2000).

Writer/director Gray’s gritty looks at New York have been his trademark since Little Odessa in 1994. With his new film the gangsters might be gone, but the emotions still run high.

I didn't enjoy this film, except for the fine performances by the actors. I didn't like the story since it was a predictable downward spiral, and Leonard was not at all a likable character. No surprises, no redemption. Sandra deserved better.
