A fictional situation featuring four fictionalised characters from different walks of life, all of whom you'll likely recognise even though they're never actually named. There's a professor with wild hair, a 1950s Hollywood blond bombshell, her baseball playing husband, and a U.S. senator who may ask if you are now or have ever been…
It takes place mostly in one hotel room, keeping the best parts of its origins (it's adapted from a play by Terry Johnson) and mixing them with the best parts of cinema, including cutaways, flashbacks and even some flashes forward. To connect with it you'll need to have an appreciation for all of those things and be a fan of Nic Roeg's unique shooting style.
