Imagine you’re a film distributor, handling an experimental movie by one of the country’s most iconoclastic directors. The subject is an enigmatic occasional recluse who is being portrayed by four actors, an actress and a 13-year-old boy. Where do you open that film?

If you’re very lucky, you get to book it at Film Forum, perhaps the most exclusive art-house cinema in Manhattan.

I saw the rough cut a couple of months ago. Outstanding. Going to a screening of what I assume is the final cut tomorrow.

Somehow it makes perfect sense that the same person could portray Galadriel, Dylan and Queen Elizabeth (not Queen Jane.) And she was good in that Zissou movie too…
