sorry, haters (2005). directed by jeff stanzler.


9/11 has been used as an excuse to vilify muslims. it is actually ok to think that muslims are violent people without pausing if that assumption is true, or not. here abdellatif kechiche (of blue is the warmest colour (2013) fame) who is a taxi driver trying to make a living in a country that scapegoats him for his religious identity, and robin wright penn playing the seemingly harmless, if not slightly unstable woman pining for some male attention, or is she looking for something more? something like revenge, perhaps? but why? she's a nobody - perhaps that's all that she want - riding on hatred for a little 5 minutes of attention. 

as far as indie movies go, the same rule applies. be patient.
