难以置信的事实

Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters erfectly came early in his career.br\　　Adrienne Shelley is a near erfect foil to herself, equal arts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and insired by idealism gone wrong she is decetively – and simultaneously – comlex and simle. Her Audrey insires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with hotos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Euroe tri; her stealing, then sleeing with the mechanics wrench, etc.)br\　　As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful erformance. A reformed risoner\enitent he returns to his home town to face down ast demons, accet his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and reeatedly mistaken for a riest, he corrects everyone (quot;I#39;m a mechanicquot;), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he ractices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of overty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a retense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simlicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, erfectly layed.br\　　The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . quot;You need a woman not a girlquot;) is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can#39;t leave it as such and his trick, having the actors reeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly quot;artyquot; and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a eretual quot;am notquot;\quot;are tooquot; argument).br\　　Hartley#39;s weaves all of a small neighborhood#39;s idiosyncrasies into a taestry of seeming stereotyes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the quot;unbelievable truthquot; of the title is, yet no two eole can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
