YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS (1998)
NEIL LABUTE
Plot
Well, if your friends and neighbours are anything like this lot, Heaven help you. It's rare for a film to have not one single sympathetic character, but that's exactly what you get in this bleak, black comedy peopled with self-serving scumbags. A tale of sexual frustration, marital disillusionment and unhealthy carnal obsession, it centres on two miserably married couples and their involvement with a couple of dysfunctional singles (unbalanced lesbian Nastassja Kinski and loathesome misogynist Jason Patric), and with each other. Viciously amusing, painfully well-observed, and guaranteed to make you squirm if you're less than satisfied with your relationship. Brutally and brilliantly honest.
