Paranoid Park

In recommending "Paranoid Park" for LA Times readers, Carina Chocano gushes eloquent:

Youth and death meet again in Gus Van Sant’s "Paranoid Park," a gorgeously stark, mesmerizingly elliptical story told in the same lyrical-prosaic style that has characterized his latest films. Based on a young-adult novel by Blake Nelson, it's a study in angst and guilt made visible by the dreamy camera work of Christopher Doyle (and co-cinematographer Rain Kathy Li) and otherwise palpable by Van Sant's charged, simple direction.
