Choose Me [Blu-ray]
By Carradine, Keith
An achingly romantic neon dream, Alan Rudolph's comic and cutting exploration of the mysteries of human desire established him as one of the most boldly idiosyncratic independent auteurs of the 1980s. At the smoky dive Eve's Lounge, a collection of strangers - including an insecure radio sexpert (Geneviève Bujold) , a commitment-phobic former sex worker (Lesley Ann Warren) , and a globe-trotting mystery man (Keith Carradine) - become entangled in a web of passion, jealousy, and self-discovery. Grooving to the rhythms of Teddy Pendergrass's sexy slow jams, Choose Me exists on its own offbeat wavelength - knotty, surprising, and deeply tender in its vision of lost souls wounded by love yet still reaching out for human connection.
