Sundance. El Camino de los ingleses (Summer Rain).

Summer Rain "Antonio Banderas's sophomore directorial effort [Summer Rain; site] deserves a look, but I wish he had given as much attention to a solid story as he does to the unforgettable imagery," writes Eric Kohn for the New York Press.

"[W]e couldn't make head or tail of Summer Rain," writes Alison Willmore at the IFC Blog, who finds watching it "like sitting through a haphazard splice of the worst aspects of both Almodóvar and American Pie."

A "train wreck of a movie," declares the Hollywood Reporter's Kirk Honeycutt.

Next stop, Berlin.

Coverage of the coverage: The Park City Index.
