Richard Corliss of Time magazine calls LIFE DURING WARTIME “The Year’s Best Indie Film”. He also says of Solondz “He doesn’t want to judge his characters; he needs to understand them. And because he portrays them with such boldness and acuity — daring the viewer to laugh at them and, a bigger challenge, to find some residue of beauty in the beasts — he is the best argument for why we need indie movies. His films will never be mainstream fare; audiences who wander into the theater may well find them derisive, needlessly shocking, perhaps unforgivable. But I’d call them, and especially Life During Wartime, unforgettable.” Click here to read the full review.
