The Puffy Chair / USA / 2005
Despite its unfortunate title, The Puffy Chair makes for an excellent introduction to the (also unfortunately named) “mumblecore” film movement that’s getting some long deserved attention now due to a recent article in the New York Times and an upcoming series of screenings at the IFC Center in New York. It’s got all of the usual conceits: shaky hand-held camera, nonprofessional actors, a focus on aimless twenty-somethings and their love lives. But it also has a fairly traditional road-trip romance story arc, an impressive collection of weird old Southern folk as a supporting cast, and three damn good performances by its principals. All of which should make it appeal to people who aren’t, well – lets face it, hipsters like me.

It completely restored my faith in US indie cinema. It has a perfect ending.
