Beach Inflatables
This week two people look for meaning and purpose in vastly different ways.
Nozomi lives with middle age waiter Hideo. Hideo bathes her, dresses her, has long heart felt conversations, takes her for walks in a wheelchair, and makes passionate love to her. Nozomi is a cheap blow up sex doll. One day she finds a heart and comes to life. Hirokazu Kore-eda's bittersweet meditation on the intricacies of relationships and the loneliness of existence, Air Doll.Moondog is a plagiaristic poet who hasn't published anything in a long time. His life is an endless hedonistic cruise around Miami and the Florida Keys, paid for by his incredibly rich wife's money. Until one night it all comes to an abrupt stop after an accident leaves him cut off until he finally finishes his book and in court ordered rehab. A love or loath comedy with a strong cast and single character laser focus, Harmony Korine's The Beach Bum.
