This is a rather interesting story with lot sof potential. Heather has great body in there, but her look is rather odd I always think. The actor's performance is charming, but no deepth in delivery. Above all, the two actors don't seem to have a burning energy going in the film. (all the sex scene seem like soft porn rather than emotional drama). Shame! Check out "Secretary" for the sort of unusual sicky love plot, and check out italian film "Facing window" starring with Raoul Bova and Giovanna Mezzogiorno for amazing chemistry delivered with subtlty.

I think it could have been a decent movie if heather didn't play the part. her acting sucked and no chemistry between her and joe whatsoever. why did they even pick her for this role?

I feel like Heather was casted mainly for looks. They seemed to play up her really pale coloring a lot. I don't remember her being that pale in Boogie Nights or From Hell.
