Garden State

I went to see Garden State (4/5) last night. It was a very well made wee film. Nothing all that much happens but it's great. Zach Braff and Natalie Portman were excellent leads and of course the Scrubs star wrote and directed the thing himself. It reminded me slightly of films like Beautiful Girls and You Can Count On Me.

It's had a lot of acclaim for its soundtrack and it is really good. My favourites really were the songs I already knew well. The brace of tracks by The Shins and Simon & Garfunkel's The Only Living Boy in New York.
