Dev, I loved it! Do you think Jay has similar feelings when some drunk in the audience shouts, "Whiskey Bottle!" or "Moonshiner!"? By the way, I knew WO/BPB and I had something in common, Neil's 'Harvest" album is his favorite also.

Hey sturgeon,
This movie was playing near me sometime last year, and I had the great fortune of seeing it. It really took me by suprise and was definitely one of my favorite movies from last year. It is a beautfiul and simple look at humanity. I don't want to blabber about it too much, so I'll leave it at that.
Don't miss it!

A new movie is being released this weekend titled 'Old Joy' starring W.O. It receives a good review in my local paper and the NY Times declares it to be "a must-see". Based on the review it is a buddy picture and Will plays the aging free spirit who attempts to connect with an old friend who has chosen the road more traveled. They get lost in the woods and their fragile bond starts to unravel I guess. I think it has very limited screenings. I will always be indebted to Mr. Oldham and his music because that was the genesis in my search for a truer sound.
