Review of Lake Tahoe (2008) by Mike M — 27 Jun 2009
This kind of gnomic deadpan is an acquired taste - a familiarity with, and fondness for, early Jarmusch might help - yet even if Eimbcke tends to hold them at a studied arm (or camera)'s length, rarely moving in for a close-up, his young people do look, think and act like young people; and if the film does nothing more than drive several times around the same block, avoiding the issues its protagonist has waiting for him at home, there's a freshness and confidence in the way it finds new angles to pursue, and unexpected (albeit minor) roads to go down.
