This one has really stuck with me, and continues to do so. It’s such a downer, but in a really compelling way. Not sad exactly, but deeply melancholy.
Oscar Isaac gives an incredible performance, musically and otherwise. He remains sympathetic even while playing an asshole.
So we’ve got O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Inside Llewyn Davis; I think the Coen Brothers should do one more quasi-musical period piece to complete the trilogy.
The restaurant monologue has a bright future as an audition monologue, and the rooftop scene has a bright future in scene study acting classes. Great stuff.
Full disclosure I didn’t watch this today, but I was shown a cut of it a couple months ago. I’ll review it again once I see the finished product.
This was a blast to make. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my first time working on a feature film. I hope the fun the cast and crew had carries over to audiences; I think it will.
It’s officially out! So fun watching the finished product. It looks great, especially the on-ice action, which is something I know the team was serious about getting right.
This movie was made independently on a small budget by pretty much just a group of people who love hockey. I’m grateful to them for bringing me aboard and I’m looking forward to more people seeing this.
