Watched this mess of a story yesterday. It was interesting, convoluted, and non-linear. I liked it and one scene that is staying with me today is the one involving the aftermath of a wreck that was induced by the consumption of mescaline. Tom Waits, playing this pseudo-religious character, shows up in a beat up convertible and proceeds to deliver a monologue with exaggerated hand motions. The camera zooms in and out, movement’s speed up and than slow down; it’s pretty damn surreal.

It's not a bad film. it's hard to follow at times but interesting, and I caught at least two Tom Waits songs during the film.

I head it is very innacurate. Domino in real life was a lesbian, in the movie she is hetero.

Strange, since she was involved with the movie up until she died.
