Review of Old Joy (2006) by Andrew O'hehir for Salon.com — 04 Jul 2015
Old Joy is only 76 minutes long, but it has the contemplative power of Buddhist meditation. Reichardt gives us long, stoned takes of rural roads; shots of birds, insects and slugs in the spectacular Oregon rain forest; interludes with Mark's dog, Lucy.
Some viewers may well be bored, or monumentally irritated, by this. I found it masterly, riveting.
