| The action kicks in about 40m into this black comedy. Stapleton plays the girlfriend of a Notting Hill gangster who finds her home invaded by two men looking for revenge on her partner.
Knocked unconscious she comes to laid on the bed, her hands are tied behind her back with strips of bed sheet, more of which has been used to tie her legs at knee and ankle. At this point she is more annoyed than scared and moans “I don’t have time for this”. When her mobile rings she wriggles round on the bed and uses her nose to answer it. Eventually her captors get tired of her complaints and tear up another bed sheet to gag her with. From this point on Stapleton is scared, sitting up on the bed and sobbing. A visitor calls at the flat and the gag is briefly removed so she can identify him, after that she is handgagged. Wriggling free she hops out into the hall but the visitor is a man she helped set up earlier in the film and when he recognises her she quickly starts hopping back towards the bedroom screaming as she tries to duck bullets. The gunman is overpowered and both captives are tied to wooden chairs, Stapleton now has her wrists tied to the side of the chair and her ankles to the chair legs, again with bed sheets. She is cleave gagged as before. The captives are placed facing each other and each have one wrist untied for a game of Russian Roullette which comes to a premature end. After that Stapleton’s character is carried from room to room, one hand still free. The scene comes to a premature end about the 1Hr 15m mark when she falls victim to a stray bullet from an unexpected source. The first 15 minutes are very good and quite funny but the second half will not be to everyone’s taste. |
