The late Dennis Grunes’ take on Gus Van Sant’s Restless.
The late Roger Ebert also gave it a positive review. As far as I know, I’m the only other person (and the only person with a long life ahead of him) who did. But it’s always great to have your tastes validated. If this film becomes as popular as it should be, I’ll be able to say I liked it before it was cool.
I bought the DVD based on this review and started showing it (without previewing it myself) to a class of h.s. seniors today. We’re only about a half hour into it but we’re liking it a lot so far…
I’d be interested to know if high school seniors (who have less of a sense of mortality) like it.
