Why is it on the list?: For those who haven’t embrace the Mumblecore movement yet, you might want to reconsider with Katz’ latest. The recent release of the gorgeous trailer is what got this film on my list – I can’t help it’s what You Can Count on Me might look like today, with a little Van Sant thrown in for good measure.
Release Date/Status?: Was just announced as part of first batch of titles for this year’s SXSW – a second home for Katz. Look for this to travel the film fest circuit, maybe Seattle, maybe Karlovy Vary, maybe Deauville. Look for this at an art-house theater near you.
