  Duane Hopwood 2005

  So good I had to reevaluate my opinion of David Schwimmer and his talents. A remarkable little indie movie that understands its subject very well and hits all the right notes. May not be for everyone, but I think it has a unique charm and magic all its own and it definitely cast a spell over me. Deserves a wider audience.

  Might be the most simultaneously heartbreaking and inspiring film I have ever seen. Essential viewing.

  Interesting primarily because it's Christopher Nolan's first feature film, but also as an example of what can be done with very little money (and a lot of creativity).

  Old Fashioned 2014

  A flawed but beautiful film. It's an indie and it shows. Too slow in parts and some uneven acting, but even so it has a remarkable tenderness and the story covers some ground that I haven't seen 100 times and asks some real questions for our time. More of a mood piece than a traditional drama, but I really liked it and was moved by it.
