First-time feature film director Jieho Lees The Air I Breathe is nothing, if not a disappointment.
The Air I Breathe features four characters who represent the four forces that are said to tie all people together: Happiness (Whitaker), Pleasure (Fraser), Sorrow (Gellar, also known in the film by her stage name, Trista, a bastardization of the Spanish for sad), and Love (Bacon).

Adding to the disappointment of the day was director Jieho Lees The Air I Breathe.
The best part of the day was watching Tribeca staffers scramble after they realized that, due to miscommunication with paying patrons, they had given away the seats intended for Sarah Michelle Gellar and her entourage.

And if the accomplished, eclectic cast was not enough to put The Air I Breathe in contention for a major award, it certainly could help to make you a winner the next time you play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon.
Lee's film fits the Crash formula, although it's hardly a prizewinner - which is not to say it's awful.
