In which Megan Boyle and Tao Lin take an Ecstasy, then navigate Manhattan: in a
car, on the subway, in a cab, on foot, by way of supermarkets, drugstores and
malls, filmed in a single shot, with a MacBook, which they also, occasionally,
use to play music and browse the internet. Nothing happens, and while you wait
for the MDMA to kick in (it never really does), you have plenty of time to
think about other things -- like the cinema of Andy Warhol, generations of New
York filmmakers who tried much harder to recreate its aura, and why it takes
these two so little talent, effort or inspiration to inherit so many of its
qualities. Still one of the most beautiful and radical drug films of the decade.
