Coffee and Cigarettes

Saw Coffee and Cigarettes at the Alamo Drafthouse Village over the weekend. Liked it a lot more than I thought I would. I'd seen the first three shorts before when a friend loaned me a bootleg tape. They were pleasant, but didn't exactly blow me away. I was expecting more of the same, but the cumulative effect of all the shorts back to back made something greater than the sum of its parts. It had a real resonance that I wasn't expecting, especially the last one with Taylor Mead and Bill Rice.
