Austin Film Festival Day 4
From it’s cast list Mrs. Henderson Presents would lead you to think another staid British film is on it’s way to you local arthouse. Instead Judi Dench, Bob Hoskins, and Christopher Guest bring you the movie you were expecting with a full dose of nudity. Sentimental to it’s core, this story about an aristocratic widow trying to keep her theater open during World War II is on the long side, but it’s worth seeing.
Two Harbors fully defines independent film. Shot on low-end equipment with a cast of less than a dozen (that focuses almost entirely on two of the characters) and zero special effects, it might as well be a stage production. It comes across as exactly the kind of movie I would probably end up making if I had to make one all by myself.
