If you haven't seen Tumbledown yet, you are in for a treat. Rebecca
Hall plays the widow of Hunter Miles, a fictional singer with a cult
following. She has stacked enough wood for years of a comfortable
widowhood--living among her husband's instruments and keepsakes in the
lakeside cabin in Maine that they shared. She's forced from being a
hermit by the brash academic (played by Jason Sudeikis) who appears on
his European motorcycle to dig up biographical details on Hunter for
his PhD dissertation. But Hunter's widow turns out to be more
fascinating than the memory of Sudeikis' musical hero. And the rest is
chemistry. We get to watch Jason Sudeikis and Rebecca Hall on a date at
the town dump, at a family Easter gone wrong, and standing on a sheet
of frozen ice surrounded by the crazy whale sounds of a thawing lake in
the Maine woods. The rapport between Rebecca Hall and Jason Sudeikis is
riveting. Their banter is smart and funny. And Damien Jurado's haunting
tunes give the movie a depth that reverberates for days to come. The
film is gorgeous, moving and entertaining.
