The couple first meet at a Nighthawks cafe after spending some time chatting on the web. After a breif chat and a little flirting from Hayley Stark (Ellen Page),a 14 year old girl, she suggests that they go back to Jeff Kohlver's (Patrick Wilson),a 32 year old photographer, home to listen to a recording of a Goldfrapp concert. Whilst their Hayley makes them both a drink,namely a Screwball. After a drink Hayley suggests Jeff should takes some pictures of her like the ones on the walls of his home. Hayley dances on the sofa whilst Jeff passes out. When he comes to he is bound to a chair.

This is a "does exactly what it says on the tin" film. Its a nice twist on the normal storyline for this kind of film, normally being the adult is the one in control. The performances from Ellen and Patrick are beleivable,even to the point i nearly felt sorry for Jeff when he's trying to convince Hayley of his innocence. Little red riding hood has nothing on this film.

I have to admit I thought this film was total shit, the twist was so predictable, the whole film IMO was just awful - less than 1 star.

I normally do like to do a bigger review on films, but with this one i dont think i can. The story surounds 2 people in one location. so this time i have tried to hint at the storyline rather than give it all away
