	AfterEllen.com - Review of Laurel Canyon
		Laurel Canyon is essentially a character study of the effects of putting two control freaks in an environment that is out of their control, and watching them squirm.
		Written and directed by out lesbian Lisa Cholodenko (who also did the lesbian-themed film High Art), Laurel Canyon premiered in theaters in March 2003 and tells the story of Sam (Christian Bale) and Alex (Kate Beckinsale), an upwardly-mobile couple from wealthy backgrounds who have both just graduated from Harvard Medical School.
		Inevitably, as in most dysfunctional-family dramas, secrets are revealed, long-overdue confrontations are had, and lives are altered in Laurel Canyon as Sam and Alex try to keep their relationship together despite the mounting deception and betrayal.

	Laurel Canyon (2003): Reviews
		Laurel Canyon itself feels musical: languid, rich in color and light, and deliciously sensual.
		Authenticity is strangely lacking in Laurel Canyon, although Cholodenko’s exquisite eye for framing remains uncorrupted.
		Laurel Canyon lacks the sense of risk that "High Art" had, and in doing so, emasculates its apparent protagonist in Sam.

	3BlackChicks Review™... LAUREL CANYON (Cass)
		Regardless, what works for Laurel Canyon is Frances McDormand's portrayal of an unapologetic woman approaching her 50's, but still living the life of a flirtatious record producer 20 years past her prime.
		Watching Laurel Canyon is like driving from New York to California smoking a joint, and finding out that you drove cross-country for nothing because California had moved east.
		Laurel Canyon is one of those Indie flicks attempting to titillate the audience with screwed up characters delivering conversational dialogue in unnecessary scenes.

		Lisa Cholodenko's sophomore film Laurel Canyon has a similar premise to her first feature High Art: A beautiful and intelligent good girl is lured into a wild lifestyle by an older, bolder woman.
		Laurel Canyon is a terrific film about inhibitions, choices, and love, which Lisa Cholodenko embodies through the different characters.
		Beyond those two moments, 'Laurel Canyon' is a poorly written and one-dimensional film and I don't understand why such talented actors were drawn to it.

		All that being said Laurel Canyon has very quickly jumped out into the forefront of the movies for this year, led by one of the tightest ensemble performances I've seen in a decade, and with superb writing and seamless directing, this movie out strips a fair number of the 'best' pictures from last year.
		Well, my young chap, Laurel Canyon falls short only in that it moves rather slowly and explores a subject that is so simple on the surface and so familiar to us all that it comes across as almost boring.
		This is not really a short coming, mind you, there is a depth to Laurel Canyon, and a brilliance to its method of revealing that depth that boggles the mind.

	Laurel Canyon film review
		At the centre are the freewheelin' Jane, who has always put music and a good time ahead of her parental duties, and her son Sam (Christian Bale), whose barely concealed resentment is reflected by his lofty moral stance and sober manner.
		Where Laurel Canyon is less successful is in its ability to fully develop the supporting characters and make them more than just plot devices.
		Some of this failing is the result of clunky acting, particularly on the part of Kate Beckinsale as Sam's girlfriend Alex, who lacks the subtlety and depth to make her metamorphosis convincing.

		Lisa Cholodenko’s Laurel Canyon is a rock ‘n’ roll tale set in those Hollywood Hills.
		Cholodenko was brought up in the Valley and, when she was younger, used to drive through Laurel Canyon on her way to West LA. “I always felt the mystique of going over the hill,” she says.
		And its theme is something which used to be a joke in the sixties and seventies but which has inevitably turned into reality: the fact that kids born in the Age of Aquarius are almost always straighter and more conservative than their parents.

		For one thing, Sam is all too familiar with walks on the wild side, having spent his life contending with the chaos that surrounds his mother, Jane (Frances McDormand).
		She's a record producer who lives on Laurel Canyon Boulevard, a street that runs deep into the Hollywood Hills and past the homes of rock stars, music-biz legends and assorted wastrels who never really checked out of the Hotel California, at least not mentally.
		One of California's most intrinsically Californian locales, Laurel Canyon is a mythic place that had great resonance with Cholodenko when she was a kid growing up in Los Angeles in the '70s.

		Laurel Canyon is a weirdly scruffy crevice of L.A., not visibly affected by the city's yuppie upgrade in the '80s and '90s.
		The movie's early tour of its unkempt lawns and rusty cars makes it clear that the Canyon is still the place Joni Mitchell was singing about in her song "Ladies of the Canyon" on the classic 1970 album of the same name.
		Laurel Canyon is not a perfect movie but it's more humanly engaging in more unusual ways than anything else you're likely to see at the mall.

		You feel that Jane would like Sam to loosen up a bit, but also needs him just as he is; she has produced a self-reliant son, too straight for his own good, yet honestly who he is. The two actors weave a fine thread of mutually exasperated respect and love.
		A son's worst nightmare -- your girlfriend making out with your mom -- is hinted at but not explored; Cholodenko rightly senses that this would derail the movie's emphasis, which is on life's dissatisfactions rather than on sex.
		Laurel Canyon is an easygoing study of different kinds of foolishness, relaxing into human flaws and coming up with something that feels fresh.
