Abduction: The Megumi Yokota Story — basic good documentary, about a kidnapping whose scope and impact gets larger and larger as the years pass.
Puppy — good! Both leads are great, the film is well put-together … the only narrative worth seeing in the festival so far.
Things That Hang From Trees — Oh look, a sleepy southern town with a cast of quirky characters. Easy on the eyes though. That Ray McKinnon, he’s somethin’. But along with Sunday’s No. 2, it’s two hours that I wouldn’t have minded keeping for some other purpose.
Brothers of The Head — seems at a glance to be one those one-joke movies that I’d hate (siamese twin rockers! haha!), but it turned out to be very well done; filmaking, acting, music, it’s all good.
