Solitary Man

1st film today is Solitary Man. Car magnate watches his personal & prof. life hit the skids b/c of business & romantic indiscretions.

Solitary Man was pretty good. Nice little movie. Great performance by Michael Douglas. Lots of great supporting cast. ***1/2

Get Low

Get Low was next, about a mysterious 1930s Tennessee hermit who threw his own rollicking funeral party while he was still alive.

Get Low, starring Robert Duvall along with Bill Murray and Sissy Spacek was spectacular! Best of the fest so far…

Duvall gives one of the best performances of his whole career and the rest of the cast is fantastic as well.

if there’s any justice this will get an American distributor and a best actor nomination for Duvall.

P.S. Q&A for Get Low earlier with director Aaron Schneider (with some great Bill Murray stories):

Harry Brown

Next was Harry Brown:Elderly ex-serviceman & widower looks to avenge his best friend’s murder by doling out his own form of justice.

Harry Brown stars Michael Caine & he’s (as usual) great in it. It’s gritty & quite intense at times. Caine dishing out justice! ****

And so ends another #TIFF09 day. All good movies today which is awesome. A few beers and taking it easy tonight.
