Review of SLC Punk (1998) by Amy Taubin for Village Voice — 04 Apr 2013
Merendino's most innovative directorial strategy is to collapse present and past by having Lillard shout Stevo's reflections about his youthful rebellion directly at the camera, while the scene he's describing in the past tense takes place behind him.
I know it sounds like a Brechtian affectation, but it works.
