House of Maxwell

Film choice
Actor Paul Dano’s directorial debut, co-written with Zoe Kazan, is a film of quiet desperation, tenderly extracted from Richard Ford’s novel. In the wide, lonely spaces of 1960s Montana, 14-year-old Joe (a watchful Ed Oxenbould) is dragged into the unresolved dramas of his parents. Prideful, fickle Jerry (Jake Gyllenhaal) takes a job away fighting forest fires, and the dissatisfied Jeanette (Carey Mulligan) uses the freedom to explore what life can offer her. But will that include her family? Simon Wardell
