Mr. Roosevelt (2017)
8/10
Truly inspiring

Noel Wells does an amazing job behind the scenes in this riff on the alt-culture hits of Wes Anderson, Charlie Kaufman and the likes. Compare it as a female perspective with 'Rushmore,' 'Moving Day,' or even 'The Life Aquatic,' and add the talented Nick Thune. Its messages are very humbly presented and awe-striking at their insightful portrayal. It's about a small town girl who moved to the big city and failed, something like "Hey Delilah" the famous pop song. It takes place in her small town where she returns, in Texas, to face the death of her beloved pet and the consequences of losing touch with the people she loved. The acting is fun to watch by all of the smaller parts. Great movie with plenty of food for thought.
