Latter Days

An interesting film about love and homosexuality in the Mormon church. Good concept, but really bad acting. 3/5

Manic

Well acted but too preachy. "Dandelion" & "United States of Leland" are similarly themed but far better films. 3.5/5

Mysterious Skin

Not since Pan's Labyrinth have I seen something so scary, sad, and yet hopeful all at once. I'm still crying. 5/5

Two Lovers

Sumptuously directed, this powerful film is about love, lies, & sanity. Joaquim Phoenix is so fucking brilliant. 4.5/5
