GARDEN STATE is getting really positive reactions from people who have made the effort to see it. It speaks particularly to people our age. While there are some clumsy moments (give the guy a break, he's a first time filmmaker), I thought it was full of brilliant little details and amazing visuals. There's a link to the trailer here: http://www.agoraf ora.com/Arch_Movie/july_28.htm . Take Sam's word for it and go see it.
