Mud, Mud, Mud, Mud. There's not enough that can be said about this film. It's no surprise it's at the top of the list. Same with The Way, Way Back. What I can't figure out about Mud is it's a project of Arkansas home boys, shot in Arkansas, about Arkansas (oh, but that last visual) but we couldn't find it screening in Arkansas. Kansas was the closest. Wassup with that.
A twitter friend also drew my attention to LUV. Wow. It's not a new release but it deserves attention.
Thank you for continuing to bring these films to our awareness. They prove a good, tight script with a strong story has an audience.
