LOVE, LUDLOW - Narrative, US, 2005, 89 Minutes

With a gleeful wink to a more innocent cinematic era and classic 1950s romantic comedies, LOVE LUDLOW invites us into a crisply constructed and smartly stylized universe that exists almost outside of time, filled with delightful anachronisms like typewriters, hair rollers, "gentlemen callers", and characters who say things like "he's a card." Within this constantly surprising and charming world lives Myra - a tough, straight-talking temp from Queens. At the office Myra takes no guff; but at home life is dominated by her eccentric unstable younger brother Ludlow who occupies a fantasy world inside their tiny flat and depends on her for his every need. When Reggie, a sweetly nebbish "suit" from work takes a shine to Myra, she slowly lets down her guard and cautiously attempts to carve out a life on her own. But a deeply threatened Ludlow throws up serious roadblocks and Myra must tread a thorny path if she if to salvage happiness. (Sundance)
