Movie review - "The Unbelievable Truth" (1990) ***

Not as impressive as it once appeared, but still an assured debut, particularly when you consider the dialogue. Adrienne Shelley is extremely winning as the lead girl, but all the cast are good - I particularly liked her father and ex-boyfriend. A droll sense of humour, very idiocynratic and the person vision ensures it still has freshness. The relative absence of plot does mean that things start to drag towards the end.
