    I enjoyed watching this movie, even though I found it weird as heck. It may deal with 'beatnik' characters and poetry/music, but seems timeless in that this crazy plot could happen any time, anywhere with anyone. It could be titled "the Box" as much of the story revolves around this straaange box! Norman Reedus and Eric Roberts were the only actors I recognized but thought all acting was wonderful, especially Reedus' beatnik Nick. A prolific film that I watched twice in one night but am at a loss for words as to WHY.
