IT'S A GOD-AWFUL SMALL AFFAIR
NEW IN THEATRES...
* Cyrus, another uneven Duplass Bros. movie is elevated by excellent performances. Marisa Tomei, I'd write you a good script if you ever wanted one. Call me.
UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...
* By Brakhage: An Anthology, Vol. 2, Criterion's second collection of the experimental filmmaker's short films. This one nearly broke me, I'm not going to lie. (Also at DVD Talk.)
* Everlasting Moments, Jan Troell's expansive, touching family epic set in early 20th century Sweden. (Also at DVD Talk.)
THIS WEEK IN DVD REVIEWS...
* Life on Mars - The Complete Collection, the excellent time-travel cop show from England now all in one set.
* Mad About You: The Complete Fourth Season, the Paul Reisher/Helen Hunt television series has a banner year. One of the best of the sitcom format.
* A Single Man, one of my favorite movies of last year, Tom Ford's film is now on DVD.
* Soul of a People, a fascinating Smithsonian Network documentary on the Federal Writers Project and the New Deal. Put me to work, FDR, I'm ready!
Current Soundtrack: Kylie, Aphrodite (streaming at NPR)
