It would be hard to imagine a romantic black comedy made with a lighter, more assured manner than Eleanor Gaver's beguiling feature There's No Fish Food in Heaven. Fairuza Balk is Mona, a frustrated young artist who not only paints her dreams (and nightmares) but has a habit of watching them turn into reality. Mona is romantically torn between a mysterious stranger who may not be real and her longtime boyfriend who may not be alive. Gaver's ability to deftly move between fantasy and reality gives the film a gossamer touch that is enhanced by its bright pastel visuals, jaunty music track, and relaxed ensemble acting. Balk gives one of her strongest performances as Mona, a young woman struggling to cope with her oversized emotions. - David Schwartz
