'Undertow'
![With "Undertow," David Gordon Green remains the compelling filmmaker of his distinctive first feature, "George Washington." However, in his third feature — his second, "All the Real Girls," afforded Zooey Deschanel a breakthrough role — his gift for texture and atmosphere and for expressing the world through the eyes of youthful, marginalized antagonists is wedded somewhat uneasily to a conventional plot.](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2004-10/14754854.jpg "With "Undertow,\" David Gordon Green remains the compelling filmmaker of his distinctive first feature, \"George Washington.\" However, in his third feature — his second, \"All the Real Girls,\" afforded Zooey Deschanel a breakthrough role — his gift for texture and atmosphere and for expressing the world through the eyes of youthful, marginalized antagonists is wedded somewhat uneasily to a conventional plot.")

'Around the Bend'
!["Around the Bend" is the kind of pan-generational, single-sex, multi-hankie family picture that would have starred Shirley MacLaine and Julia Roberts had it been made 20 years ago. Instead, it features Michael Caine as a dying, but still chipper, patriarch; Christopher Walken as a prodigal son who shows up just in time for redemption; Josh Lucas as the tense, resentful son he left behind; and Jonah Bobo as the saucer-eyed 6-year-old who takes it all in. It's got a desert road trip, a beat-up VW bus, a '60s soul soundtrack and Walken dancing around a campfire, unbidden. It's about fathers and sons and unbreakable bonds and sad, shameful pasts. Gentlemen, it's a male chick flick — "The Dirty Secrets of the Ya-Ya Brotherhood."](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2004-10/14565381.jpg ""Around the Bend\" is the kind of pan-generational, single-sex, multi-hankie family picture that would have starred Shirley MacLaine and Julia Roberts had it been made 20 years ago.
