Here’s a movie that had been totally marketed incorrectly to me. I had no idea it was going to be a formalists’ wet dream. Nor did I realize it was going to be funny! (It is, at times, supposed to be funny, right?) Any movie that has two major scenes at a Tad’s Steak is okay in my book. This movie is so much to 2007 as Godard’s La Chinoise was to 1967. I very much mean that as a compliment to Julia Loktev’s eye.
