Review: Digging for Fire (2015); dir. Joe Swanberg

I’ve been iffy on Joe Swanberg’s stuff. I loved Digging for Fire. It also features a host of awesome indie-stars strolling in and out of the action: Ron Livingston, Rosemarie DeWitt, Melanie Lewensky, Sam Rockwell, Chris Messina, Orlando Bloom, Brie Larson, Mike Birbiglia, Judith Light, Sam Elliott – the list goes on and on. It’s really funny and entertaining – without sacrificing depth.

It reminded me of Woody Allen’s Manhattan Murder Mystery and that is praise indeed!

My review of Digging for Fire is now up at Rogerebert.com.
