Committed To Lisa Krueger
Token Girl's Shoutout To An RTC Fave
In one of the final years of John Huston's life, he
was aked, "What makes a great screenplay?". After a little careful
consideration, his answer was, "A Great screenplay is one where
the central theme of the movie resonates in every scene, no matter
how insignificant it may seem." Lisa Krueger is a student of the
John Huston method. Many of you probably are familiar with her film,
MANNY & LO (if not, you will be grounded from dessert until you
rent it.), but I'm here to let you in on this year's Sundance entry,
COMMITTED (coming soon to that art house you've been meaning to
check out). Now you could watch this and any other movie for that
matter on the basic popcorn level, or you could let yourself answer
this question:
HOW MANY PEOPLE DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE A LOVE ARMY?
The RTC Committed Match-Up Game

Manny And Lo
A Few Words
Before Token Girl fell into the fast and talented
company of a certain Lisa Krueger, I found myself a vocal champion
of Krueger's first film, Manny & Lo. Here's what I think about when
I think about Manny & Lo.
- What it means to be a family
- Someone finally made a good movie for teen girls and adults..
- John Lurie's soundtrack rules.
