Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Micransix Crappy film

Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

neomannix I actually knew Peter Wellington while he was working on the script, and proof read it for him and gave him as much feedback as I could on the Joe character, who I the narcissus that I am, believe is loosely based on me.I was quite the macho ass-hole back then and somewhat of a bad boy.My girlfriend at the time was somewhat like Josephine. But once again I'm flattering myself. I have a very bad temper that I'm still trying to get a grip on and Peter had seen me lose it one night and was more than amazed. I really helped him out a lot in regards to how Joe, who is less than a happy camper would lose his temper.Peter is an extremely intelligent, insightful, funny, and highly creative individual with great talent and I am extremely proud to have had the pleasure to get to know him as well as I did that wonderfully strange summer in downtown Montreal.I deeply and sincerely wish him all the best in all of his future endeavors whatever they may be.

rxpagg1 Joe's so mean to Josephine was an excellent movie. Wellington developed the characters beautifully unfolding their personalities piece by piece. Joe's pain touched my heart. Josephine's naivete and disillusionment in the man she loved was compelling. Polley & Thal played them with realism. I loved Thal's earthy performance and Polley's perkiness. By time the movie was over, I felt like Joe & Josephine were actual people. Josie's lack of ease was cute, and Joe's coolness then vulnerability pulled me in. I've been looking for the video hoping to view it again, but haven't had any luck. I would like to hear from someone who knows where I can find one. This one deserves a place in my video library!

oldirtysk8er Just saw this film on the sundance channel and I instantly fell in love with it. "Joe's So Mean To Josephine" is sick, painful, and great fun to watch. It's like a twisted episode of Melrose Place, only the characters are much more pathetic in their attempts to find love. Try to watch this on Sundance Channel, you wont be disapointed, and if you're anything like me you'll be screaming, "Damn you Joe!" at the television screen.

aaron-71 I can't think of a better written story about the problems, jealousies, insecurities that arise between couples in difficult, conflicting relationships that are based less on love than need. The dynamics between Joe and Josephine change halfway through and the pathetic behavior of Josephine suddenly changes as her career takes off the Joe's career criminal life takes a nose dive as he realizes that his life is going nowhere. The resolution is both maddening, dramatic and touching. The two lead performers are great.
