"Handsome Harry"

Here is the trailer for the film I interned on Handsome Harry . It premieres at Tribeca Film Festival this Friday.

Plus a favorable review of the film by the antique MTV newsman Kurt Loder.
Here's another review from Variety, but its not as favorable.

"Handsome Harry," the second of only two features Bette Gordon directed in the 26 years since "Variety," finds the groundbreaking indie helmer recasting her feminism into an all-male study in gay denial. Scripted by '70s counterculture lenser Nicolas Proferes and thesped by a veritable who's-who of gifted character actors, the pic (like Gordon's 1998 "Luminous Motion") loosely resembles a road movie: A man, dragging along a secret, revisits co-participants in a traumatic event that transpired decades earlier. Beginning promisingly enough, "Handsome" soon turns monotonously angst-ridden, with all humor and personality falling by the wayside. Theatrical chances look iffy.

Update May 4th: I saw the film yesterday. Typically, I don't like road movies or movies that hold back information only to be revealed later. That's the way I felt about this film when I originally read script. However, after seeing the film, I have to admit the director did a great job adding plausibility to why the information was withheld and how it was revealed. Kudos to the director.

Moreover, the Variety claims "some of the stops" along the way are "stepping stones". I agree somewhat, except the acting during these "stepping stones" is excellent. Possibly, if lesser actors portrayed these characters they might have been "stepping stones", but with John Savage and Aidan Quinn as the "steps". The scene are worth watching. And okay, as per the Variety review, the ending can been seen coming a bit before actually comes, but that's okay. I really don't think it lessened the impact of the ending any. The same goes for the angst-ridden ending, it maybe a bit hard to watch, but its resonate long after leaving the theater. I would definitely recommend the film.
