- The Missing Picture
What do Wes Anderson and the Khmer Rouge have in common? Well, nothing, but that’s never stopped us before. This week’s long review considers Anderson’s latest fancy, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and Rithy Panh’s humbling Oscar nominee The Missing Picture, which opens Friday at Music Box. Meanwhile Ben Sachs goes eye to eye with The Face of Love, about a lonely widow (Annette Bening) who falls in love with a ringer for her late husband (Ed Harris).
Don’t forget these special events: Friday at University of Chicago Logan Center for the Arts, Charlemagne Palestine Videoworks collects the music-based video art of 70s pioneer Charlemagne Palestine, and later that night at Music Box, CLAW: The Movie tells the fearsome tale of the Collective of Lady Arm Wrestlers.
