A gem for patient viewers
This is a dramatic comedy about unpredictable adolescent characters spending a Sunday alone in a middle-class apartment in Mexico City apartment, but it is by no means a "teen-comedy" along the lines of "Amercian Pie". Filmed in five weeks for less than a million dollars, "Temporada" won 11 Ariel awards, the Mexican equivalent of the Oscar, as many as the much more commercially succesful and Tarantino-esque "Amores perros", and it was by far the best-reviewed Mexican film of 2004. It made less than $150,000 in it's short U.S. theatrical run, probably because of it's austere black-and-white photography and slow pacing (it covers nine hours of Sunday loafing in about an hour and a half). The style is indebted to early Jim Jarmusch and Yasujiro Ozu, and if you have the patience to endure the pace of everyday life on screen, you'll be rewarded by impeccable visual composition and a moving portrayal of adolescents caught in limbo and forced to interact with each other when a power-failure robs them of their XBox.

What became of Bill Forsyth?
After making a string of memorable comedies in Scotland during the 1980s, the best of them being "Local Hero", Bill Forsyth went to Hollywood for what must have been a disastrous experience with "Being Human" starring Robin Williams in 1993. Since then he seems to have directed only made one film, "Gregory's 2 Girls" (1999), a sequel to his second feature from 1981, also included in this set. While the low-budget 1981 high-school comedy hasn't aged particularly well, the sequel is an interesting though not altogether satifsying attempt to broaden Forsyth's comedic sensibilities and to consider the ethics of capitalist globalization. The plot involves an investigation into a Scottish firm which may be producing high-tech torture instruments for sale to repressive regimes in other parts of the world. The film is an odd mix of Forsyth's characteristic off-beat humor (this time a bit raunchier and involving sexual attraction between a high school teacher and his student) and anxieties of globalization.

Mild Magic
I had high hopes for this movie after seeing Silverman's outstanding bit in "The Aristocrats", but while some of this is equally funny, on the whole, she doesn't come up with a feature's worth of entertainment. Expect to be mildly disappointed.
