Film Comment Selects Begins

While this week's batch of first-run reviews contains the usual underwhelming mix, there's good news for film fans. That's because Lincoln Center's annual Film Comment Selects series starts today, kicking off with at least two worthwhile entries, both of which I covered for The House Next Door.

First Run Films
Even the Rain (Slant)
Putty Hill (The L Magazine)
Immigration Tango (Time Out New York)
Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son (Time Out New York)
