Mark Duplass is nothing if not persistent in trying to put together a piece with his usual entourage to bring out genuine drama. He gets partially away with it but somehow he always falls short. Despite the fact that they have managed to get the lovely Emily Blunt involved, the motion picture cannot be labelled as truly great.

One of the best and little viewed Vietnam pictures. Patrick Duncan perhaps suffered from the fatigue of viewers who had been inundated with bigger budget productions. Perhaps audiences were Vietnamed out. Nonetheless, this is a unique perspective and worth tracking down.

I can't understand why people choose to base jump particularly given the risks but this film is great at exploring the psychology of why people do it. The film reaches its logical conclusion.

Finally saw it and it immediately leaped to the front of the list of my favourite Truffauts. Gorgeous tale of a misunderstood youth and how he tries and tries to deal with life's misfortunes.

A superb addition to the Quebec canon brought to you by Lea Pool who is very successful at bringing out strong emotions from her actors. Karine Vanasse is the beneficiary of her guidance.
