If you loved The Shape of Things, try Nurse Betty
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Neil LaBute, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Shape of Things, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Nurse Betty is
A Nebraska diner, noon, summer. A waitress erases a booth's ketchup heart. Then the world goes fuzzy. Two killers kick down her door expecting a hostage. Betty smiles, flicks the coffee warmer. One sobers up on a soap opera matinee instead. A dark screwball where reality is optional.
