I rented this movie on DVD to watch during the blizzard last night. All I have to say is ... Wow! Not what I expected at all ... but loved all the little twists and turns. I thought for sure someone would go berserk and kill somebody.
Basically, there's this guy who's in love with this girl (#1). Unknown to either of them there's another girl (#2) who's in love with him. She schemes to keep them apart, quite successfully. So, thinking his true love (#1) has abandoned him he leaves Chicago to take a job in New York. Then meets yet another girl (#3) and moves back to Chicago with her two years later.
Stuck in a job he doesn't seem to care much about, with a woman he respects but has no real affection for ... this guy is understandably confused and dissatisfied.
Then a weird thing happens. He thinks he's seen girl #1 by chance in a restaurant in Chicago. He can't chase her because he's with girl #3. He blows off a very important business trip, lies to his girlfriend, and stalks girl #1 all over town, but she keeps eluding him. That is, until he breaks into her apartment, and finds ... you guessed it ... girl #2!!! Instead of having him arrested she tries to seduce him. Ha! It didn't take much effort on her part and in a moment of stupidity he sleeps with her. Are you getting confused yet??? LOL!
Anyway, it turns out girl #2 is seeing his friend (let's call him guy#2). Guy #1 discovers her charade but doesn't blow the whistle on her to guy #2. Girl #2, in a gesture I never expected (what I kept expecting was for her to go postal and kill somebody), confesses to girl #1 (oh, did I mention that the #1 and #2 are friends?) The airport reunion of guy# 1 and girl #1 ... well, let's just say ... I used a couple if tissues ... it was so touching. Without saying a word they spoke volumes. It was beautiful, man. <sniff, sniff>
