| An entertaining 2 hours awaits the audience in this film set in the early
80's. Sevigny and Beckinsale play disco chicks Alice and Charlotte, who are

| Director Whit Stillman is comfortable in the niche he created for himself
with the acclaimed, chatty film Metropolitan and Barcelona, and continues
