one of my absolute favorites!

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Although he is not necessarily credited for directing or producing this film, I know Warren Miller had a hand in it, as it has the feel of the other films he's narrated and directed. Whenever I catch one of his films, I prepare to spend the next two hours watching, and this film is no exception. I can't explain why, but they grab you and won't let you go until it's over, and when it's over, you just want to watch another. I _HIGHLY_ recommend this film.
