NotesA couple living in New York State meet when they are both shop-lifting. In no time at all they decide to go to Toronto seeking a rare doll Marcy (the woman) wants. Of course they fall in love but on the way it is revealed that Marcy has Tourette's Syndrome which often results in unpredictable behaviour. Tunney won the Best Actress prize at the Venice Film Festival. The only other films in this list featuring Tourette's are "The Tic Code" (1998) and "Jimmy Zip" (1999).
