And My Friend Sandro Nivola Is In It!
Most of the cineastes at Park City are saying that this is a weak year for the Sundance Film Festival. The exception — the movie that everyone at high altitude is getting high on — is “You Were Never Really Here.” Plot: A tormented but brutal hired gun sets out to rescue a young girl from a sex ring, only to find himself weathering a storm of violent vengeance when matters go awry. Actors: Joaquin Phoenix and Alessandro Nivola, whom I’ve know for donkey years.
