Thanks for taking the time to watch and critique. I'm not going to try to defend the film, since you're perfectly entitled to dislike it. The only point I'd respond to is #3 - the lack of dialogue is intentional, the idea being that at a job like that a person can go through a day (week, month, whatever) without really talking to anyone, just going to work and going home without any human interaction, aside from the buzzing blackberry. It does sound depressing when written out like that... but I will say that lawyers seem to get a perverse amusement from it, so maybe you have to be a certain type of crazy to appreciate the humor?

I liked the lack of dialogue, but also thought it was a little long. I like the idea and thought it was entertaining -- it made the point well.

BTW, I think there are a few lakes in Queens and on Staten Island -- its been ages since I've been back there though. I don't know, maybe that's not the "city".

Don't worry, once the hurricane passes there might not be any more outer boroughs.
