Profile
Believe it or not, Hollywood and its gay-marriage spoofs have recently disappointed us. This retrospective of Portuguese director Pedro Costa's work is delightfully free of Adam Sandler (and crypto-homophobia). Mostly shot in the slums of Lisbon, and often with a static video camera, the minimalism and miserableness of his films made him an international film-festival celebrity. See his 1989 debut, The Blood or the New York theatrical premiere of his newest work, Colossal Youth.
