I am a fan of Kyle MacLachlan from his Twin Peaks days and good reviews of his performance as Cary Grant led me to watch this movie. I'm sorry I did because it saddened me to see him reduced to acting in a movie of this caliber. The script never met a cliché it didn't like and I knew where immediately how the story would end. (I was right.) Jimi Mistri was not the right choice to play Alim. He was clearly uncomfortable with the gay kissing scenes and the rest of his performance ranged from morose to more morose. He does a lot of his acting by widening his eyes. I got the impression Suleka Mathew is a good actress but her character was poorly written--so manipulative and unpleasant one moment and so effortlessly transformed the next. Finally, the lighting, the sets, the staging all scream "we can't spend a lot of money on this production."
