"I’ll never forget first seeing Lucrecia Martel’s La Ciénaga at the New York Film Festival in 2001. It was one of the most assured first features I’d ever seen, a complex, atmosphere-drenched portrait of a middle-class family barely hanging on during a torpid summer. The film marked the emergence of a fully formed artistic sensibility, and remains one of this century’s defining films."

It's been six years since WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN, but her fourth film has finally arrived with the kind of buzz that anticipates the possibility of it becoming an all-timer. See it for yourselves at Regal Cinemas Transit & Galleria.
A couple other indie selections worth a look include the wonderful OH LUCY at North Park Theatre (check website for listings alongside new documentary Love And Bananas) and the acclaimed Itzhak Perlman showcase Itzhak the Film at Dipson Theatres Amherst.
There's also FINAL PORTRAIT at Dipson Eastern Hills and IMITATION GIRL at the screening room cinema cafe.
