Film Review – Prince Avalanche

It’s been a long time since director David Gordon Green explored
humanity. After a stretch guiding one inspired comedy (“Pineapple
Express”) and two wretched ones (“The Sitter” and “Your Highness”),
Green returns to his backwoods roots with “Prince Avalanche,” an oddly

imagery, managing to attack central conflicts from unusual angles.
Beautifully shot and refreshingly performed from two actors in need of a
change of pace, the movie settles into a position of isolation and
finds rich character notes to play, spun with that special Green
idiosyncrasy that once defined his career before Hollywood came calling.
