Review of Paterson (2016) by Lyn — 15 Apr 2017
Scanning the reviews of "Paterson," I felt like I was the only person who watched it with growing dread ... with images of "The Shining," "The Machinist," "Fight Club" and other films that led to alternative-reality craziness.
Whew! The superb Adam Driver isn't crazy here. Just deeply immersed in a poetic internal life that he allows to surface via a few human contacts and mostly, in his extraordinarily expressive face. Mysteries linger.
WTH do all the twins mean??? But even if you're not a fan of the type of poetry featured, the film is thought-provoking and haunting.
