Will Dirk clean up and get back on top? Will Amber see her son? Will Rollergirl ever take off her skates?! (imdb)

I dunno, amidst all its characters and plot lines, in the end it lacks a certain, ahem, thrust, with no clear arc or, heh, climax to speak of (the hypnotic back-and-forth between limo and truck came close but didn't quite land). That said, its "slice of life" structure is certainly done very well, with the majority of its many characters and scenes quite memorable and mull-worthy (Reilly's earnest Reed and the dramatic/comedic drug deal probably top the list). Great music and camerawork too.
