I was really disappointed in this film after all of the reviews I had seen and heard from respectable sources. I found the dialogue to be witty and creative many times, but the artifical cast and phony scenes made it seem completely self-serving and flat. I do understand the characters were intended to be shallow and often laughable, but something more than surface glibness would have been nice. Sevigny's character was the only one with any humanity or depth. While it can be a good time to laugh at the self-absorbed, two hours of watching ineffectual, spoiled kids from NYC lost its appeal. Besides, I highly doubt the velvet ropes of high-profile late 70's & early 80's clubs would have parted for the lukewarm Ivy League guys in this flick.
