Written and directed by Darren Grodsky and Danny Jacobs, Humboldt County tells the story of disillusioned medical student Peter Hadley (Jeremy Strong) who finds himself in California’s picturesque but remote “Lost Coast” among an eccentric family of marijuana farmers. Humboldt County opens in theaters on September 26.
Sometimes it seems that all I'm writing about these days is movies about pot or pot dealers or documentaries about potheads doing prison time. It's a post-Weeds phenomenon, perhaps. But here's a film that would appear to fall within that...
The Criterion Collection has announced their first wave of next-gen releases, bringing the classics 'The Third Man' and 'The Man Who Fell to Earth' to Blu-ray in mid-November. Much to the delight of cineastes...

Izzy more than a bit fascinated by the appearance of film directors, whose line of work makes them especially attune to visuals. Hence, he was especially happy to see an interview of Peter Bogdanovich about his trademark bandanna: You have developed a very distinct signature style of wearing ascots. How did that start?

Watched Robert Benton's masterful BAD COMPANY just last night on Turner Classic Movies for the very first time, and became even more captivated with the performer Barry Brown.
