12:08 East Of Bucharest
Directed by Corneliu Porumboiu. In limited release.

"12:08 East of Bucharest...carefully builds a sly and unexpected human comedy out of a dispute over whether a revolution would still be a revolution if nobody showed up."

Review by Kenneth Turan, The Los Angeles Times.

Dans Paris (In Paris)
Directed by Christophe Honoré. Playing at the IFC Center in Greenwich. Also on Video On Demand.

"Dans Paris is very much...about that glorious, fizzy, enlivening flashpoint when you think love might have struck, and that crushing, seemingly bottomless moment when you know it has left the room for good."

Review by Manohla Dargis, The New York Times.

Rocket Science
Directed by Jeffrey Blitz. In limited release.

"...sharp dialogue and wacky non sequiturs aside, the deep pleasure of Rocket Science is the way it resists easy classification. Pic unexpectedly deepens into a poignant and amusing reflection on the universal nature of love..."

Review by Justin Chang, Variety.

2 Days In Paris
Directed by Julie Delpy. In limited release.

"Ms. Delpy's and Mr. Goldberg's performances are so assured and spontaneous that they don't even seem to be acting; they're living their roles in front of our eyes. As they tear each other to shreds, 2 Days in Paris becomes a meditation on the unknowable essence of another person, even an intimate partner."

Review by Stephen Holden, The New York Times.
