  Hal Hartley blends wit, observation, and empathy so seamlessly that all the familiar pieces from sub-genres — high school, teen romance, and family dramas, feel renewed with a gentle touch. A film built on refusals; a resistance to being coaxed into stereotypes, even when character and plot try to force the narrative (and the romantic leads) to do so.
