Synopsis

1972. Vietnam war protests and racial tension is sizzling in the late summer heat of Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Billy Mitchell, a recent college graduate, spends the summer working on the lush grounds of an old world mental institution run by his psychiatrist father. Billy falls in love with Virginia, a patient who is possibly crazy, or perhaps she is the only sane person Billy has in his world. Billy’s best friend Nigel becomes involved with a radical civil rights activist against Tuscaloosa’s power elite, which includes Billy’s father. Billy is torn between Nigel, his father and his cronies, and Virginia who is planning her escape with or without Billy.

Limited and VOD Releases: Prospects for Limited Releases are Never, Rarely this Dire

March 13th, 2020

Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Always

The COVID-19 outbreak hangs heavily over the film business this weekend, and raises a lot of questions about how much business we will see at the box office. It is going to affect family films most of all, because families are more likely to stay home than adults when it comes to diseases like this. However, the second group to be affected could be art house films, because these tend to only play in large cities, and large cities have been hit harder by the outbreak so far. The advise is to stay three feet away from anyone else, which is impossible if you are using the New York City subway system, for example. I don’t think any of the films on this week’s list are going to thrive, at least not in theaters. That’s too bad, because there are several that deserve audiences, including Big Time Adolescence, Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Always, and others. More...
