    Yes it was Elizabeth Berridge - and I can tell you that the rape scene is intense because what is not scene rather than what is.

      Thanks. I'll keep an eye open for the film in the future.
      You make me envious. I've had several novels optioned, but nothing's made it as far as the screen. Keep up the good work. Steve V.

            Well, The OP is right about onr thing, this film was/is atrocious. It was a commercial and critical disaster. I'm sure this is a film Sandra Bullock wishes would disappear. It was a probable career for Rae Dawn Chong, who never got a major role after this.

              Shame on you!!!! Your name should be "dirt BAG" instead of dirtbunny. I can't believe that you would write something like that. Of course, when you're hiding behind a name on a computer, I guess this is what happens.

                Agreed, that was a disgusting and very offensive reply.

                  I didnt' see the racial aspect of that portrayal. I just think the characters were just boring and unlikable. I can handle unlikable, but boring is inexcusable. Maybe if I caught it early in the 90s, I would not have hated it as much. But with much better indie movies that followed this movie in the 90s, there is absolutely no reason for this movie to have a sequel.
                  I hate to burst the bubble of the director because he seems really earnest, but there is absolutely no way Sandra Bullock would do this sequel. About as much chance of her doing a Fire on the Amazon sequel.
                  Movies like Dazed and Confused or a Whit Stillman movie made around the same time period seemed to have aged a lot better.
                  Thisa movie actually has more of a TV mvie than an early 90s indie movie feel.

                    Yeah, not much point in a sequel, when nobody knows the original exists. Would the original ever have been seen had not Bullock become a star?
                    Fire on the Amazon, LMAO!

                        There are so many things wrong with your post that I can't even and begin to explain. Did you watch the movie? I guess will just mention a few things
                        That couple was not married they were engaged.
                        Sandra not only pay for her rent paid for her friends rent.
                        friend came up to MJ when she was crying at the end of tried to comfort her.
                        MJ was sleeping with her supposed friends boyfriend and he was a total jerk to both of them.
                        Sandra comfort of her afterwards they all did
                        The girl was never in the hospital her friend Mario was the one who died
