Review of Metropolitan (1990) by Paul P — 13 Oct 2012

Funny and insightful, this is a very entertaining film.

Stillman seems to be intrigued with the lives of academic preppy types who seem to have unlimited resoures and focus on things that ultimately are not that important. This flick captures the silliness of this situation and the precarious relationships of the characters that fill this film.

There is plenty of great dialogue and observations and come the end I found myself wanting to spend.more time with these guys. Indie.film making at its best, the type that just won't get financing these days...
