Me and You and Everyone We Know

Went out last night to the fabulous 5th Ave. Cinema and saw Me and You and Everyone We Know, on the advice of a friend. That cinema is great, I've really enjoyed every movie I've seen there. But back to the main point. "Me and You and Everyone We Know" is a real mold breaker, a refreshing show from Miranda July who is clearly a genious.

I liked how the artist touches things and expresses herself all over her environment (on the inside of her car's windsheild, for example). It would seem somehow perfect if some of the footage in the movie was actually taken from Miranda's personal collection of art; I'm thinking of the shoes with the ink on them. The movie isn't really about her though, it is about the connections between people and the depth of character that exists before and after things get all complicated by adulthood.

Anything more would be a spoiler though; go see it.
