Mitchellville
won an Honorable Mention Jury Prize at CineVegas in 2004. A comment on its IMDB synopsis reads ‘This is an amazing first film that, unfortunately, may fit into that category of movies too good to get distribution.’ It's playing on Sundance Channel as I write this.

I didn't catch this from the beginning, and it feels like the kind of movie that should be watched from the beginning. It's subtle and sophisticated. The writing is smart and a bit sassy: Asked what he does for a living, the protagonist answers ‘I represent corporations.’ The other character replies ‘So you're a crimial lawyer!’

The photography isn't as lush as Wang Kar Wei's In the Mood For Love, but it has a bit of that quality that locates the action somewhere between dreaming and awakening, imagination and reality. The five or so minutes that I watched also evoked the atmosphere of corruption in Boiler Room.
