CGiii Comment

You would be forgiven in thinking that this was made for the sole purpose of employing well-rested actors...who are desperate to try their hands at playing white trash.

The dialogue is either unintelligible or incomprehensible, take your pick...it doesn't matter because it serves no purpose other than displaying an above-average for swearing.

There is a tissue of a story...the first act is composed of randomly spliced together scenes depicting white trash at work and play...then, the gay character pops in, wears a dress, strips and pops out again...followed by...possibly, the most anti-climactic ending imaginable.

It's all very film-school...it's all very uninspired...and, uninspiring.
