Bought it because of the internet buzz as I do not go to the movies except when my wife drags me to one such as Marlie & Me during which she cried and I slept and I could not find it in a video rental store.Oh, as to why People I Know is an interesting movie: 1) Some how the director manages (Special Effects?) to make Tea Leoni ugly;2) It was the Hollywood version of Der ewige Jude.Dan Kurt
