Fay Grim
Many years after her notorious husband, Henry Fool, fled after killing a neighbor, Fay Grim (Parker Posey) receives a visit from CIA agent Fulbright (Jeff Goldblum), who tells her that Henry is dead, but that some of his journals have been unearthed in France. She sets forth on a globe-trotting odyssey that soon leads to the discovery that he is alive, and his journals are more than they appear to be.
Kevin Crust of the LA Times in his Critics' Choice review of Fay Grim writes:
Hal Hartley's dark comedy "Henry Fool" was an indie masterpiece that effectively and accessibly meshed Hartley's literary influences with his specific minimalist style and some of the most memorable characters of the last decade. Now, Hartley takes the characters he created for that world and launches them into a surprisingly different direction in "Fay Grim," a worthy follow-up and rare art house sequel.
