Old Joy
Old Joy ★★★ 2006
Two 30-something buddies who spent their younger days smoking pot and fighting the system embark on a reunion road trip to an Oregon natural hot springs. While their time together is pleasant enough, the pair doesn't quite reconnect—Kurt (Oldham) is still living in the past, while Mark (London) has a career, wife, and child on the way. Not much in the way of action but their talks—or, even, what isn't talked about—show how the glory days of friendship can't always be recaptured. Drawn from Jonathan Raymond's short story. 76m/C DVD . US William Oldham, Daniel London, Tanya Smith; D: Kelly Reichardt; W: Kelly Reichardt, Jonathan Raymond; C: Peter Sillen.
