This one always sounded the most interesting of all the Sundance movies. After hearing you speak about it, I'm even more excited now! As a big fan of Succession (the theme song is my ringtone on my phone), something about Kieran and Jesse together is intriguing.
He was amazing in Igby Goes Down.
This was the hardest one for me to nab a virtual ticket for. It was the first one to sell out, and I kept trying and trying to nab an extra one that might’ve gone on sale. Fortunately, I got a screener when it won a Screenwriting Award, and I got an awards screener for it. And it ended up being one of my favorites of the fest, along with THELMA, KNEECAP, and Exhibiting Forgiveness.
One film this reminded me a bit of, and this movie could work as a double feature with Real Pain, is Wes Anderson’s The Darjeeling Limited. Both movies surround estranged loved ones who travel to a foreign country in honor of a deceased loved one where they both air and try to overcome their tensions with each other, and also in a way get closer and understand each other better over this time. There’s enough to differentiate the two, but I thought of that one quite a bit.
I just subscribed to you I’ve been watching your stuff for I guess about six or seven months really enjoying I just subscribed to you I’ve been watching your stuff for I guess about six or seven months really enjoying your commentary. Curious, did you see the Irish language film Kneecap? I heard it was pretty spectacular.
Great review, thank you !! One to put on the list.
Honestly fave film with Jesse Eisenberg is HOLY ROLLERS about Hasidic Jews who actually were involved in ecstasy trafficking in the early 2000’s. It’s based on a true story and absolutely unlike any other story I’ve ever seen.
Thanks, Brian. This seems like a good movie to see. I have always liked Jesse, especially in "The Social Network." I believe that he should have received an Oscar for his performance. I'm less familiar with Kieran, because unlike most of the world, I did not care for "Succession." I only saw Season 1 via a DVD from the library.
I stopped watching Succession after two or three eps of season one, but was pushed by friends to try again. It took years, but I thanked them later.
Isn't it pronounced JESS and not JESSIE?
Nope, it's definitely pronounced like Jessie
So much better than ugly BeKindRewind
