So low action, only two locations, very few exteriors and all the lighting will be beautifully controlled.

Remember that "The Celebration" was part of the Dogme 95 movement, which had some pretty strong sentiments about how to make a film- they actually wrote a manifesto with rules, one of which was no artificial lighting. Having "beautifully controlled" lighting might take you away from that kind of feel.

...or perhaps you meant it will be beautiful how controlled the lighting will be?!
