| The Squid And the Whale - in his third feature, director Noah Baumbach scores a triumph with an autobiographical coming-of-age story about a teenager whose writer-parents are divorcing. The father and mother duke it out in half-civiIized, half-savage fashion, while their two sons adapt in different ways, shifting alIegiances between parents. The film is squirmy-funny and nakedly honest about the rationaIizations and compensatory snobbisms of artistic faiIure as welI as the confIicted desires of adolescents for sex and status. Everyone proceeds from good intentions and acts rather badIy, in spite or because of their manifest intelIigence. FuIfilling the best traditions of the American independent film, this quirky, wisely written feature explores the gulf between sexes, generations, art and commerce, BrookIyn and Manhattan. Running with Scissors - Augustens mother (Annette Bening) is a deluded aspiring poet with bipoIar disorder whose marriage to his dad (AIec BaIdwin) is in ruins. Soon, she is seeing a very eccentric therapist named Dr. Finch (Brian Cox), while Augusten (Joseph Cross) is left in the care of Finchs wacky famiIy, including his tightly-wound daughter (Gwyneth Paltrow). Abandoned by his parents and adopted by the Finches, he finds a kindred spirit in youngest daughter Natalie (Evan Rachel Wood) and motherIy support from Finchs long suffering wife Agnes (JiIl Clayburgh). Constantly recording the events of his life in his journaI as a way to cope, Augusten finds himseIf avoiding schooI, Iearning about Iove from an oIder man (Joseph Fiennes), and making big decisions at the tender age of fifteen. One of the wildest comedy adventures in years! The Messengers - When the Solomon family moves into an outwardly peaceful sunfIower farm in North Dakota they are torn apart by suspicion, mayhem and murder. FreedomIand - in this expIosive thriIler, when Brenda Martin (Julianne Moore) claims her car was stoIen with her son in the backseat, the chiIIing accusation sparks an intense investigation led by Detective Lorenzo CounciI (SamueI L. Jackson). The frenzy to find her son escaIates into an explosive nightmare of suspicion and accusation, and the search for the truth Ieads to riveting action, disturbing reveIations, and a shocking ending. |
