Heather Noel and I will be talking at length about Aaron Katz's latest film, the mumblecore noir Cold Weather, on the next DVD Afternoon podcast, but you can get a preview of what I'm going to say by listening to this week's Hidden Movie Gem segment for CBC Radio. This is the kind of movie that's hard to sell in a segment like this. The style of filmmaking doesn't really lend itself to snappy sound clips, and the overall tone of the film is also difficult to convey—it's offbeat, but not the familiar kind of "offbeat" that a lot of listeners have come to expect from movies like Little Miss Sunshine or Juno or whatever.Anyhow, give the segment a listen and see what you think. Also, you can download the entire Cold Weather score by visiting composer Keegan DeWitt's website, which I something I also recommend doing.
