It probably won't play within 100 miles of me, but I'm eager to see this nonetheless.

Posted: 11/29/08 at 12:42pmThis looks great. I have been saying for years that Michelle Williams is one of the best actresses of her generation. She also did a movie with Lukas Moodysson that's coming out next year.

Posted: 11/29/08 at 7:49pmJust saw the trailer for this at Film Forum in Greenwich Village and I have to say, it looks great. Thank God for the indies because most of the crap being created in Hollywood isn't worth two cents.

Posted: 11/30/08 at 8:42amFriends of mine who saw this at the New York Film Festival said that it's surely one of the best films of the year and that Michelle Williams could be a major contender for Best Actress. I'm looking forward to seeing it when it opens at Film Forum next week. Old Joy, the director's previous film, is one of the best independent movies I've seen in recent memory.

I saw it at the NYFF and this film is no way a contender for Best Picture. Even for a Spirit Award, IMO. It and she are not Oscar worthy in this project, though she did an excellent job for what it was. Maybe she'd be up for an Indie Spirit Award.
The script had a major flaw at an important turning point, IMO, and I had credibility issues with the whole premise after that.
I haven't really given much thought to what indie films could be in contention to even give an opinion on where this fits in for even Spirit Award consideration.
