Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Kathryn Leigh Scott and David Selby previously starred together in the 1960s Gothic soap 'Dark Shadows' — their reunion here as estranged Hollywood couple adds accidental meta-melancholy.
The film quietly belongs to a micro-genre of 'porn star redemption' indies (The Wrestler, Boogie Nights' shadow) that Hollywood keeps making because the industry loves stories about itself.
