Pre-Fest: Lars and the Real Girl



LARS AND THE REAL GIRL (2007, Craig Gillespie) 51
The version I saw was a work print with a temp score and without final color timing. Grade obviously doesn't reflect the final product but it would take a lot of work to get me out of mixed territory because of its tonal inconsistency and the general feeling that the film was making fun of a character that is more tragic than comic, echoes of my arch-enemy Mike White. Terrific performances by Emily Mortimer and Paul Schneider.
