20 High Art(1998) In Lisa Cholodenko’s romance, Ally Sheedy is hardly recognizable as the Shermer High basket case who made her famous. Here, she plays a jaded photographer whose liaison with the girl next door—or rather, one floor below—draws her out of her heroin-induced pseudo-coma...

Critics Consensus: Despite occasional detours into surprisingly dark territory, Spread overall is an ineffectual celebration of vacuous Los Angeles high life rather than a deconstruction of it.
