If you loved Some Came Running, try Little Children
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
Theysit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Some Came Running, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Little Children is
Todd Field here seems to be aiming for a great American suburban novel on film. It follows the ripple effects of an affair, plus a newly released sex offender, on a small Massachusetts town. It's a very literary film, as viewers are constantly reminded.
