Son of Rambow Worth Sneaking Up On

The American Film Institute's Directors Screenings series at the ArcLight in Hollywood has a real gem this Thursday: "Son of Rambow," Garth Jennings' bizarrely funny, exquisitely filmed and rather touching tale of a kid from an ascetic religious sect and the school bully trying to make their own action film in 1980s England. It opens commercially next week, but Jennings will be discussing it and answering questions following Thursday's 8 p.m. screening.
