Product Description

From the Back Cover
I'll Take You There
Manhattan real estate agent Bill Baylor (Reg Rogers) has been having it pretty tough lately. His wife Rose (Lara Harris) just ran off with his best friend Ray (John Pyper-Ferguson). It seems things couldn't get any worse, until Bill's sister Lucy (writer/director Adrienne Shelly) fixes him up on a blind date with an ex-college friend Bernice (Ally Sheedy). Unfortunately, it's a match made in hell. Bill's rejection causes a profound life-altering change in her. She obsessively stalks Bill for weeks. One day she forces herself into his home and sets in to motion a trip that could lead to a dead end or a new life.

4.0 out of 5 stars an amazingly charming movie, Jul 1 2003
By cartaufalous (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I'll Take You There (DVD)
Sudden Manhattan may not have been much of a movie, but I enjoyed seeing Adrienne Shelly again enough to also pick up this one when it came out. I wasn't expecting much from it.

First surprise: Adrienne Shelly is only in the movie for a few minutes, playing our hero's brother in a bit part. The movie belongs to Ally Sheedy.

Second surprise: This is a terrific movie! No longer trying to somehow assemble events and characters from her own life into 120 coherent minutes of film (with coherence the loser when this proved impossible) frees Ms. Shelly to write a good story and make it all work together. It probably doesn't hurt that the cast is so good, but all in all, this is a better, more focused, more likable movie than even Hal Hartley has made in a few years.
