Baz Luhrmann makes me wish I was born deaf and blind. If it wasn't for Leo's quality acting this would have gotten a big zip zero...old sport. (6-15-13)

A black & white peek into the borderline nihilism of the twenty-somethings of aimless America. Frances is a somewhat spastic whirling dervish going nowhere in particular. She's an almost 30 going on 13. Greta Gerwig - an acquired taste I have yet to acquire. (6-11-13)

Very funny indeed as the boys party at the Franco frat house until the end of days dawns upon them. No script for this one as it all seems as one long improv on death and friendship...and getting high, of course. PS...rape jokes not funny! (6-5-13)

Nobody gets shot nor is there any car chases or sex, but there is a lot of great story-telling by Sarah Polley and her family. Basically it is a Roshomon look at her paternity and at Diane - her mother/actress/life of the party/enigma. After a very lackluster 2012 Take This Waltz, Polley returns to the great directing we witnessed in Away From Her. The mysteries she chases in Stories We Tell are well worth the price of admission.
