Author Topic: Frozen River (2008) Lilian Burch Film Handler Posts: 19 From: Bethesda, MD, USA Registered: Nov 2006 posted 03-09-2008 06:04 PM                     This film premiered at Sundance and won the grand jury prize. Really good film and well acted. It's still making the film festival rounds but will probably be released later this year.  |  IP: Logged John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 02-01-2009 10:34 PM                     Any FT opinions on the film? I decided to read the screenplay, but about halfway through (p.63 out of 108), it seemed too depressing to continue. Thoughts? --jhawk  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-01-2009 11:58 PM                        We showed it for a while at my place and it looked dreadfully boring. It looks to be shot on Hi8 video and all of the people in it are dreadfully ugly... so much so that you want to take your eyes off of the screen. The dreadful video quality doesn't help things, either. I really hope this doesn't win anything because I don't want to get this movie back!  |  IP: Logged
