RIVER OF GRASS

“For this Kelly Reichardt super-fan, finally seeing River Of Grass twenty-two years after the fact feels a bit like happening upon a yearbook picture of an old friend dressed in adorably dated fashions. It’s a wicked ’90s indie movie, serving as a nifty time capsule of certain cinematic trends that were on their way out plus some others that we’re still putting up with.” – WBUR’s The ARTery, 03/18/2016

Had a terrific time sitting in with fellow Boston Online Film Critics Association members Kris Jenson and Dave Riedel as they spoiled what’s inside J.J. Abrams’ latest mystery box for me. We also expressed our frustrations with Terrence Malick’s recent pictures and for some reason talked a lot about James Woods. – Spoilerpiece Theatre, 03/11/2016
