Interesting examination of the life of an addict. Maybe the flashbacks are a little unfocused.

A matter-of-fact look into the life of a junkie. Unfettered, unremarkable, but not uninteresting.

It lacks the lightness of touch which helps make the films that would follow in Lynne Ramsay's career so emotionally affecting, but it is still an interesting short.

Interesting, but not among Lynne Ramsay's best short films.

This film had the story and makings to be interesting and powerful but falls short. The whole thing just sort of goes no where and my interest started drifting after a few minutes. It doesn't help that the character isn't allowed any depth.
