Lynne Ramsay
English (with subtitles)
Criterion 162
A look at a poor boy who deals with his guilt after the death of another boy. Set in the Glasgow's urban slum, the boy deals with a troubled family and neighborhood bullies.
James - The actual visuals were as much a character in this movie as were the actors. While visually striking, the plot was nothing special. That's not to say I didn't like it, but it was not a normal (beginning-middle-end) plot and it wasn't really interesting. But I liked it.
B+
Britney - This film was depressing but I adored it. The characters seemed real, though the plot was a bit too ambiguous for me. If you can look past the ambiguity, you will appreciate the colors and cinematography. The fact that Scottish English had to be subtitled was humorous, but much needed.
A-
