Review of Everything Strange and New (2011) by Lee M — 26 Mar 2011
A semi-experimental symphony to the 21st-century man, director Frazer Bradshaw's "Everything Strange and New" assembles snapshots of a carpenter's existence, connected via introspective monologues and cacophonous swells of string music.
Helmer's feature debut provides a first glimpse at what post-recession independent cinema could look like, offering a revisionist, glass-half-empty take on the American Dream. This is a film worthy of discussion and contemplation, though in the end Bradshaw's effort is just a bit too heavy handed to be recommendable.
