Movie Connections:

References Così fan tutte (1992)

Sex lives of the young and heartless..

You follow a a person through their life highlighting the moments when they are concerned/talking about sex. After they have sex, you follow their partner until that person's next encounter, and so on. 7 or 8 people in all, seeing their sex life from their perspective. A lot of viewpoints, perspectives and situations.

Its an enjoyable romp :) through these lives, frame-worked by time spent with the beginning and ending character "lorna", who makes the movie. The story and situations themselves lacked imagination. The dialog was smart, maybe the best part. The score was nice listening and went well with the brisk pace. Overall it was kind of stale. Cute and lame.
