Review of Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) by Cynthia S — 14 Apr 2014
A quiet, slightly dark, story of a struggling folk musician. Scene by scene the film is nicely captivating, and some of the music is really good. There are hints of a "mockumentary" approach, as in the barely disguised references to popular groups of the era (LLewyn's critical comment on the Clancy Brothers look-alikes is classic: "I like their sweaters.
"). Definitely not a fast moving story, but an interesting one just the same. Not the best ending, in my opinion....unless they were going for "you reap what you sow" kind of ending.
