I recently saw Beeswax at the NY screening. I've seen Andrew Bujalski's other films and similarly, he uses a very realistic approach to his... ng. The performances are strong by their realism and how natural it appears. There are many moments in the film I found myself marveling at like intimate moments in bed and sisters taking pictures of each other out in a field. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend it.

Beeswax, at first glance a modest, ragged slice of contemporary life, turns out to be a remarkably subtle, even elegant movie.Full Review

Bujalski’s funny, diverting character piece has a lived-in quality that’s no small achievement.Full Review

It all feels studiously artless - some people huffily insist that Bujalski's movies aren't movies at all - but the more you contemplate his landscapes, the more his control over their various elements is revealed. He's the real deal: a maturing artist obsessed with how and why - and if - his generation will mature.Full Review

Bujalski has a serious talent for finding resonance in the mundane.Full Review

Beeswax has a rhythmic quality, and it eschews conventional plotting for sharp observation of human strengths and foibles.Full Review
