If you loved Love Is Strange, try Little Men

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Ira Sachs, and they both carry the bittersweet, outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Love Is Strange, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Little Men is

Boyhood friendship blooms fast between an introverted artist and a swaggering local kid in Brooklyn. Their bond tightens as their families clash over money and territory after a death in the family. Quiet observation and teenage loyalty carry the film through the cracks of a gentrifying neighborhood.
