Two nights ago I watched Persepolis , an animated film about a young girl (and later, woman) coming of age in Iran before and after the overthrow of the Shah and the Iranian Revolution. When the film started, the words "Sony Pictures Classics" appeared on the screen, and I joked to the person with whom I was watching the film, "How can this film be a 'classic'? It just came out!" Well, it didn't take...

Perhaps we were wrong about Sony Pictures Classics back in January when we deep-fried them for their acquisition of the Sundance Audience Award winning film The Wackness. At that point, we were very worried that they would be ill-equiped to market such a film, and having been one of the ...

Courtesy of Occupant Films / Sony Pictures Classics I saw The Wackness on Sunday, mostly because I'd heard there was a scene where Mary-Kate Olsen and Gandhi make out. I heard right; it was awesome. But the movie was really about teen angst, and though it's set in 1994 with a New York hip-hop soundtrack and is about a high school drug dealer who makes $26,000 in a summer selling weed in Manhattan,...

I don’t recall people using mad as an adverb every five minutes in 1994 (”It’s mad hot out, yo”), but then, I wasn’t 17 that year, like Luke Shapiro (Josh Peck), the hero of Jonathan Levine’s new film The Wackness (Sony Pictures Classics). Like most teenagers, Luke is highly preoccupied with the trends of his [...]
