Backbencher

Well, this movie was interesting to say the least. The movie starts out with a girl named Lucinda being totally in love with a guy named Rob. After Rob gives Lucinda a ring while they are doing dishes in the bath tub, Lucinda begins to question their relationship. Lucinda’s best friend doesn’t help the situation when she decides to hit on Rob. The whole situation gets totally out of control when Lucinda sells all of Robs cows as a test of their love. The cows were traded to an old Maori woman for a quilt that had been Rob and Lucinda’s quilt in the first place. There is no chance that the Maori women will give the cows back because they are worth 400,000 dollars, so Rob basically looses his mind and moves into his friend’s cold garage where he sleeps and lives for a while. Eventually Rob and Lucinda’s best friend Drosophilia hook up and plan to get married. In the end Rob figures out what has happened and gets his cows back. The problem is that Lucinda gets Rob’s cows back but can’t be with Rob. In the end Rob looses Lucinda because she tells Rob that she loves him. Whoever reads this movie review probably won’t know what is going on, and that’s because I really didn’t understand what the heck was going on the entire movie. The movie had an old Maori woman who was always cold so she had a bunch of guys steal quilts from people. Eventually she doesn’t need the quilts anymore because her guys build her a personal heating plant. Don’t ask me what that was all about. The movie was really weird but it was also funny which made watching it ok, I guess.
