On January 14th, Film Forum will host a screening for Kelly Reichardt’s ‘Old Joy’. The film is about two friends in their 30’s, on different journeys, embarking on a camping trip in the mountains. The film takes place in Oregon, and is occurring post-9/11 America. The tale of friendship and alienation is complemented with original music from Yo La Tengo.
