One of the films I was most curious about from this year's Tribeca Film Festival was
Almost Christmas, the long-awaited follow-up film from director Phil Morrison, who last made the impeccable
Junebug. The reviews out of Tribeca were disappointing, and this Friday the film comes to theaters with a new name,
All Is Bright. Paul Giamatti and Paul Rudd are somewhat enjoyable in this decidedly melancholy holiday comedy, but
All Is Bright is definitely no
Junebug. My review is up at
Paste.
