Two Girls and a Guy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not to be confused with Two Guys and a Girl.

The film was produced by Edward R. Pressman and Chris Hanley. The Director was James Toback, who also wrote the screenplay.

The entire film was shot in an improbably-large New York loft. There are several thousand square feet of hardwood floor, high ceilings, ceiling fans, columns, and ten-foot-tall windows. There is a grand piano, a large-format camera, and a fireplace.

The film opens with Lou (Natasha Gregson Wagner) and Carla Bennett (Heather Graham) waiting in front of a New York building where their boyfriends live. In conversing, they find out Blake Allen (Robert Downey, Jr.) is their duplicitous boyfriend. In the first minutes of the film, we discover that he turns out to be dating both of them on the sly. The dialog is rapid and vaguely resembles dialog from the TV series Gilmore Girls.

[edit] Trivia

Some of the dialog and acoustics are not as seamless as they are in most feature films. It's as if some of the dialog is location audio and some is looping, each having slightly different qualities. The dialog is sometimes mismatched. For example, at about 48 minutes into the film, Carla pulls Blake backward up some stairs. Carla's mouth is not moving but we hear dialog.
