A Short Dossier on Fay Grim

I should have added to yesterday's post about the best lead actresses of 2007 that I wrote this full review of Fay Grim, my most recent screening of all the films covered in that entry. I suppose that Parker Posey's performance is the most surprising inclusion in my semifinalist derby, but she's measured, creative, and wonderful in an essentially baffling part. The film, if not quite as good as she is, is also an unexpected peach, and I didn't even like Henry Fool.
