Movies to Watch

Reminder list:

1. "Patrick, Age 1.5": Sounds like another of those crazy, quirky, but ultimately sentimental Swedish comedies. A gay couple thought they were adopting a 1.5-year-old little boy, but in walked a 15-year-old juvenile delinquent. To be released on August 20 in DC area.

2. "Animal Kingdom": A dark and gritty Australian gangster movie about family. Gee, where have I seen this story before? Winner of foreign movies at this year's Sundance. Well received by critics as it opens today in LA and NY. To be released on August 27 at E Street Cinema in DC.

3. "Jack Goes Boating": Local release September 17.

4. "The Town": Release date September 10. (Now that I've finished the novel, I am a bit worried. The movie will not be able to match its intensity.)
