...director's strongest, strangest work since the Twin Peaks days begins as the tale of a starstruck blond (Naomi Watts) who hooks up with a brunet mystery woman (Laura Elena Harring).

"It's just really crammed in and hard there," says Dylan. "You're with such a big class. It's very noisy. I can barely hear myself think. They don't even have soap in the bathrooms.
