Note of the Week 023

Check out the trailer for Ryan Gosling's directorial debut, Lost River. 

Described as a "gritty urban fable" and "a Detroit Gothic," the film is so far garnering mixed-to-favorable reviews around the festival circuit. It recently screened at Cannes, where Gosling's work was described as "[wading] knee-deep in David Lynch territory." Others cite Gaspar Noé as inspiration. I can see a dash of Jodorowsky in there myself.

So, what do you think? Does Gosling's new, trippy vision entice you? Will you be rushing to your local indie theatre to see this one, or do you think the actor should move away from his new role as auteur?
