Goodbye Solo tells the story of friendship between William, a 70-year-old Southerner with thoughts of suicide, and Solo, the cheerful cab driver tasked with driving him to his destination for the act. Roger Ebert called 34-year-old Ramin Bahrani “the great new American director” and White Tiger author Aravind Adiga described Goodbye Solo as “the little film that could,” noting that Bahrani resorts to “simple, direct, and classical storytelling” to take risks and give viewers two disparate ideas about the American Dream to think about.

Amy Adams and Emily Blunt star in the off-beat dramatic comedy Sunshine Cleaning. This uplifting film about an average family that finds the path to its dreams in an unlikely setting screened in competition at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival.

500 Days of Summer: Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a romantic who has the misfortune of falling hard for his winsome co-worker Summer (Zooey Deschanel), a pragmatist where affairs of the heart are concerned. Their story unfolds through flashbacks as Tom tries to win Summer back while at the same time wrestling with the idea of Summer and the conflict between perfect love and reality. The highs, the lows, the depression—it will all ring true thanks to a spot-on script and strong performances. Plus, the soundtrack—which includes the Smiths, Regina Spektor, the Pixies and Belle & Sebastian—is almost worth the price of admission. (from VSL)
