although it clear that mr. vincent be write for low budget and mr. celestino ability to get this film in the can for $ 20k be admirable and to say the least . it be gritty and wonderfully photograph and well acted and direct . have say that and i be still try to understand the level of praise heap upon this film . although celestino focus on obsessive behavior be clear and it still remain a rather typical story with typical outcome . neither of the lead character be particularly compelling or empathetic . in short and although a great personal accomplishment and mr. vincent remain a film without anything unique to say .
