VVfilm - More by Laura Sinagra - 'Nine Lives'
In yet another roundelay that, like Crash and Heights, follows the Short Cuts template of cosmic interconnection, we're reminded that one woman's oncology nurse is another man's estranged, gun-wielding daughter; that one woman's emotionally sadistic ex-boyfriend is the object of another couple's acute class envy. The short-story glimpses aim for Carver-esque pang, though the script could have used some Lorrie Moore bite.
