Indie box office: "Mister Lonely" finds friends
Harmony Korine's latest thrives in the shadow of "Iron Man," but this year's indie failures include some of the year's best films.
Four clueless actors, a dream and a paper bag
Filmmakers Jay and Mark Duplass and their cast talk about "Baghead," their delightful and totally unclassifiable indie-satire-horror breakout.
When a bad seed grows up
Both a compelling British social drama and a haunting meditation on guilt and forgiveness, John Crowley's "Boy A" is a potent summer surprise.
The saga of George W. Batman
"Dark Knight" backlash, counterbacklash and so on. Plus: Sleazy Latin lovers, Ben Kingsley as a Russian cop and other reasons never to leave home.
Batman vs. the lavender genius of crime!
I watched the great 10-hour Japanese antiwar film! Now it's your turn. Plus: Topiary genius, life after the tsunami, and a gay British crime lord.

Beyond borders in "Frozen River"
