Seriously! I'm watching this movie called "Lantana" tonight. Really strange movie, don't know why I watched it. Anyway, it was filmed in Australia. I'll go ahead and spoil it for you, if you haven't already seen it. So it's a really convoluted story in which each person is connected to the next somehow. The wife's counselor goes missing and the counselor's shoe is found by a woman with whom the husband (who is a cop BTW) is having an affair. She found it by seeing her neighbor throw it over the fence. Her neighbor happens to be best friends with her husband, who went out drinking with the first husband a few nights ago. Well, one of the counselor's clients was a gay man named Patrick, who thinks his life sucks cuz he's in love with a married man who won't leave his wife. Counselor starts worrying that maybe it's her husband who this guy is sleeping with. After she goes missing, the cop (the first husband in the story) decides that maybe Patrick had something to do with it, and maybe the counselor's husband is having an affair with him. He goes to the apartment, questions Patrick, demands to know who else is in the apartment, and busts open the bedroom door. BAM! There's Lani Tupu, playing "Patrick's Lover". He's seen later on with his wife and kids at a cafe, while jealous Patrick looks on from afar.
So, the movie wasn't that great, but sitting through it, just so I could say, "Hey! Wait a minute! That was Lani Tupu!" was well worth the rest of the movie.
