Review of Old Joy

Old Joy (2006)
6/10
A Total Joy
9 April 2017
You've heard of mumble core, this is bumble core. A story of two aging Gen-X hippies, who have lost their friendship and lost their way in life, wandering through a world that has long passed them by. To get away from the doldrums of American life, they head to the woods to find a hot spring to relax in. What ensues is a very subtle, blink-and-you'll-miss-it emotional roller-coaster ride, that illustrates the kind of fascinating filmmaker that Kelly Reichart is. I felt like I was with them, in the hot spring. We all want to find that special hot spring in the woods, don't we?
