Movie Haiku:Weigert is terrific as the stay-at-home Mom in a Lesbian relationship who almost inadvertently starts servicing other women on the side. What makes it so different from BELLE DU JOUR (to which it will no doubt be compared) is that women want different things from her than Buñuel Johns want from their hooker... And what Abby is looking for is grounded in reality NOT fantasy. NOT YET SEEN BY RICH
