Prince Avalanche

Mark Rudd, Emile Hirsch   w/d David Gordon Green

We follow two guys on a road crew in central Texas re-painting yellow lines after a devastating fire. They're both losers, but each in his own way. One's stupid and seems to know it; the other is too but doesn't.

Slow-moving and quiet in tone. Not funny, or even amusing. I guess it's brave to make an entire film of boring losers. I guess... They clash, fight, bond. At the end one's lost his woman but neither has changed at all. These two will be losers for life. There're plenty like them out there. Plenty. So what?
