« Polly is both the subject and object of her own fantasy. Her reverie is not built around an image of another, but instead, around an idealized image of herself; it is based on activity rather than simple fetishization. [Patricia] Rozema's appearance in Polly's fantasy (an an onlooker, no less) in effect erases the director-as-author as the driving force behind the narrative, and thus, turns the tables on the creative process. »
