Taxi Driver of the heart

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Just caught "Down in the Valley" by David Jacobson (who also wrote) at the cinema and was completely knocked out.
An achingly beautiful & melancholy film, tender as an open wound and with a Edward Norton in, I think, his finest role (he also produced, with the help of the Sundance Foundation) as he veers towards the void, like an innocent Travis Bickle.
He plays a delusional drifter who thinks he's a cowboy in the modern day San Fernando Valley, who falls for the beautiful young daughter (great performance Evan Rachel Wood) of David Morse (always consistent).
Great script with some wonderful lines + a nice cameo role from Bruce Dern...this film left some indelible mark - one of the best I've seen in some time. Highly recommended.
Oh, fantastic music, also....
