Bluebird (2013) Review by Clayton Davis (Claytondavis@awardscircuit.com) from New Jersey
Debut writer/director Lance Edmands puts an admirable touch on his filmBluebird starring John Slattery and Amy Morton. The story and overallaura of the film feels more in line with films like Winter's Bone(2010) and The Sweet Hereafter (1997) but lacking the emotional punchneeded to grab the audience fully. Ultimately the film explores many ofits central characters in an interesting manner but leaves manyquestions unanswered and not in the indie-flair way that can still feelsatisfying. It's the powerful performance of Amy Morton and the effortsof the rest of the cast that gives the film any lasting impression.
The film takes place in the frozen woods of a small Maine town. AfterLesley (Morton) makes a tragic mistake that shatters the balance of thecommunity, not even her husband Richard (Slattery) or her daughterPaula (Emily Meade), can rid her of the overbearing guilt that hastaken over. As multiple stories take place including that of Marla(Louisa Krause), Crystal (Margo Martindale), and young Owen (QuinnBard), all of their lives become connected in a way none of them couldhave imagined, perhaps forever.
Where Edmands succeeds brilliantly is in capturing the essence of asmall, American town full of authentic and genuine characters that feelprofoundly real. Working as an editor on Tiny Furniture (2010), thefilm that helped Hollywood discover HBO's "Girls" writer and star LenaDunham, Edmands keeps a consistent tone that feels cold and convincing.However, the film never fully takes off for the emotional connection tofully take place with the central characters. The cinematography byJody Lee Lipes creates a sensational atmosphere that falls in line withDebra Granik's Winter's Bone.
As aforementioned, Amy Morton is a true revelation, delivering herfinest acting performance of her career. Morton, a wonderful characteractress, is probably best remembered as Thomas Ian Nicholas' mother inthe 90s hit Rookie of the Year (1993) and George Clooney's disgruntledsister in Up in the Air (2009). She manages to step into her own fierceabilities as an actress that feels much like Melissa Leo's Oscar-nominated turn in Frozen River (2008). Morton is aware of hersurroundings but she gets completely lost in Lesley and becomes theepicenter of sentiment. She's best-in-show and the main take away forthe film's slow roast to a finale that feels unsettled and unfocused.
Slattery takes a full swing at the ball but ultimately comes up shortdue to being overshadowed by his co-star and having a character toportray that the audience never fully understands. Great actors likeMargo Martindale and Adam Driver are fine but completely wasted anddon't have enough to contribute. As Marla, Louisa Krause has the mostcontroversial player to represent but doesn't manage to get to the nextlevel of ferocity. Played somewhat like Naomi Watts in 21 Grams (2003),the character begins to build but fails to emote a trait that feelsbelievable. Granted, the character is meant to be hated and completelyunsympathetic but the screenplay lacks insight into the motivationbehind her point of view.
If anyone enjoys a leisured look into an American town where emotionsare not expressed except in tears and faces, Bluebird might work formany. Losing steam in the middle, the film never fully recovers andleaves you ultimately unsatisfied.
