"Sexual fantasies are wonderful—the kinkier the better if you ask me. But, in my experience, it’s sometimes best they remain as precisely that—fantasies—to be repeatedly enjoyed inside the limitless mind, safeguarded against judgment and disappointment. This dichotomy between fantasy and reality is at the heart of Morgan Krantz’s raunchy, but perceptive short film, Squeegee. Centered around a real (and enjoyably ridiculous) encounter between a prominent businesswoman and a rugged window-cleaner, the premise of the film sounds like a story snatched out of Penthouse magazine. However, underneath the surface titillation, it reveals itself as a smart interrogation of lust, and how barriers to intimacy, both figurative and literal, paradoxically serve to turn up the heat.
