Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

 ... you can learn from:

Old Joy (2006)

Kurt: Sorrow is nothing but worn out joy.

This movie, the first Kelly Reichardt film I ever saw, is turning 20 this year -- technically it premiered during Sundance 2006 so I guess it already did, but it didn't hit limited theaters until August. So feel free to throw your Old Joy themed costume parties then! We're here right this minute though because today is the 62nd birthday of the brilliant world-class filmmaker behind it. We love you, Kelly Reichardt! One of the all-time greats of American cinema, period.
