Four Lane Highway (2005)
It's "Sideways" meets "Five Easy Pieces"
Saw this film last month in Santa Fe - it had been at the festival here last year and won the big prize, but I didn't get to see it until now. We really, really liked it. It's hard to describe -- kind of like a bunch of different "genres" of movie all together, but it totally works.The movie is about these two ex-lovers Sean and Molly (Fred Weller and Greer Goodman) trying to get back together and you see their whole relationship in the past in flashback, and it's totally a love story. But it's also a road trip movie, because you have Sean and his best buddy driving across the country to find Molly (Reg Rogers, who plays the buddy Lyle is absolutely excellent). Also, even though the movie is totally contemporary, it has the somewhat retro feel of a 70s movie, such as Five Easy Pieces. I really recommend seeing this film if you can. Very romantic and well-acted.
