Weekend Movie Forecast: Frost/Nixon, Cadillac Records

Nathan Lee at the Times can't tolerate Let Them Chirp Awhile, an indie about the ennui of over-privileged New York hipsters prone to complaining about the how "the old city, like the one that I dreamed about, the one from the movies. It’s not there anymore."

Lee writes: "Written and directed by Jonathan Blitstein, the movie really does live in an imaginary past, the one immortalized in classic Woody Allen films. How else to explain why Bobby and his circle of friends name-drop Chekhov, pontificate on Bergman, crack tired jokes about Los Angeles and spend all their time either failing at relationships or kvetching about their inadequacies while whimsical jazz coos on the soundtrack? This sort of thing was indulgent enough the first time around; transplanted to the mumblecore milieu, it’s intolerable."
