Top three movies I saw at the Indianapolis Int’l Film Festival (besides my film, of course):
1: The Ten
A series of ten vignettes loosely inspired by the Ten Commandments, written by comic geniuses Ken Marino and David Wain, with an all star cast. For those who like their humor shaken, not stirred.
2: Eagle vs. Shark
A kind of “Napoleon Dynamite” absurdity meets the “Me and You and Everyone We Know” sentimentality, from New Zealand, with a little bit of Michel Gondry thrown in. Sure to appeal to a broad audience.
3. The TV Set
David Duchovny turns tricks as a TV pilot producer whose integrity is tested by Sigourney Weaver in the first role I’ve ever liked her in since…hmm, I guess, Ghostbusters. Folks said that “Thank You For Smoking” redefined satire, but this film blends pointed satire with a humorous and subtle flavor. Yum!
