Live-In Maid
Directed by Jorge Gaggero. Playing exclusively at the Film Forum in Manhattan.
“Mr. Gaggero, whose precision as a writer is matched by a keen eye for telling nuances of behavior, takes a small story and fills it with well-observed, delicate emotions.”
Review by A.O. Scott, The New York Times.
Lights In The Dusk
Directed by Aki Kaurismäki. Playing exclusively at the Landmark Nuart in West LA.
“Finnish filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki concludes his self-proclaimed “Loser’s Trilogy” with the thoroughly deadpan drama Lights in the Dusk…. Lights takes on loneliness, an affliction that plagues a none-too-bright Helsinki security guard… .”
Review by Kevin Crust, The Los Angeles Times.
Sunshine
Directed by Danny Boyle. In general release.
“… an extraordinary film, operating simultaneously at visceral, psychological and spiritual levels as it takes us on a voyage into space with the fate of mankind at stake”
Review by Kirk Honeycutt, The Hollywood Reporter.
