Directed by Steve Buscemi, rated R, 95 minutes
Trees Lounge is a charming and subtle independent dramedy about a down and out man who lost his job and his girlfriend, and now spends most of his day drinking at the local bar. Steve Buscemi never fails to create vivid and likable characters, but there are plenty of other impressive performances, including a stunning breakout from Chloe Sevigny. The plot is a bit meandering, but the characters are compelling enough to make you care, and there are plenty of laugh out loud moments. Reminiscent of 1970's character studies, Steve Buscemi, writer, director and star, has made very personal and engrossing film without simple resolutions. You'll like it if: You like independent comedies, films set in small towns, Steve Buscemi, The Station Agent, Sideways or Living in Oblivion.
