... though - as Q points out - there isn't much dialogue to speak of! as hedonistic film star Stephen Dorff attempts to relate to estranged daughter Elle Fanning. Long takes of athletic pole dancers giving Dorff private show contrast with athletic daughter ice skater giving Dorff private show in slightly queasy analogy. Few cuts and little happening make me think of seventies German cinema.
When Fanning cries, fearing both parents will abandon her, Dorff cannot reassure her .. in fact it seems to have the opposite effect... I certainly wouldn't want to be in that lifestyle - even the constant bopping looked numbingly dull.
