Review of Charlie Countryman (2013) by Brandon S — 09 Sep 2017

"Charlie Countryman" isn't a perfect film, but it is inarguably a beautiful one, both in spirit and in presentation. This movie celebrates feeling. Where it falters is the way in which it undervalues the eternal, but it certainly does a wonderful job of celebrating spontaneous emotion and action.

It's a creative burst that is fighting for a narrative, and I mean that in the best way. Sure, it's pretentious, but it's also extremely wide-eyed and ambitious.
