Baghead

Baghead has been making the festival rounds since Sundance and it may be the perfect festival film. There are a few brief moments where things don’t work quite right, but overwhelmingly this simple independent film works perfectly. It is one of those movies that you will be glad you saw “cold” (without any ideas about what it is or what you might compare it to) and if you love independent film — any kind of independent film — you will love this movie. If I say any more I might spoil it for you, so I’ll leave you with the plot outline from IMDb:

The Duplass Brothers explore the minutiae of relationship dynamics in this in-depth study of a group of desperate actor friends. And a bag […on] a head.
