GO GET SOME ROSEMARY POSTER

I'm trying to find a trailer, but it's not working on the Red Bucket site. See their unofficial poster here.

THE PLEASURE OF BEING ROBBED

I just wanted to say a few things about a film I watched last night called "The Pleasure of Being Robbed" by Josh Safdie and all the Red Bucket gang. I'm not the best at writing movie reviews, as I tend to ramble about what I liked best, so I'm going to first suggest that if you're interested in seeing this film, read a professional one. Michael Tully wrote a great article about the film on Hammer To Nail.

So all I can really say about the film is that it's an adventure. The imagination of the character's becomes your own. Whatever they want to do, you want to do with them. I say this because the film really has no limits. Eléonore doesn't follow any rules of society and therefore the film doesn't follow many cinematic conventions. Nothing stops the characters from doing what they want, whether it be a all night drive in a stolen car from New York to Boston, or a magical tryst through the Central Park Zoo. I hope I'm making sense. Again, I'm just going to say that the film is an adventure and you wanna be right there with 'em. This is the best review I can give.

Oh, and it's wonderfully shot in gorgeous 16mm.

I've attached the IFC trailer. You can watch the film currently ONDEMAND, but I'm assuming it will be playing more American festivals in the spring. I briefly met Josh Safdie at the Independent Film Fest of Boson two years ago and since then I've been following Red Bucket on their website. So I suggest you do the same. www.redbucketfilms.com
