	LEVITY
		Levity's main character is Manuel Jordan (Billy Bob Thornton, Monster's Ball), who, as the picture opens, is being sprung after spending 23 years in the pokey.
		Working the Community House door is how Manuel meets Levity's fourth spoke, Sofia Mellinger (Kirsten Dunst, The Cat's Meow), a quick-witted girl with cute mittens and an unyielding drive to spend most of her life in a drug-induced stupor.
		Levity almost tricked me by making like it was going to turn into Dangerous Minds at the halfway mark, but thankfully that was just a passing vibe.

		Levity works in conjunction with many people and organisations in the North West of the UK and further beyond.
		Levity didn't know anyone else with decks when he started, the closest he'd come to using any before were In record shops at the listening posts.
		In 2006 Levity goes from strength to strength, with several sucessful sets under his belt, both in Manchester and Liverpool, at some of the biggest events in the Northwest.

	DVD Review: Levity
		"Levity" is his directorial debut and he was certainly able to pull together strong talent in front of the camera - Billy Bob Thornton, Morgan Freeman, Kirsten Dunst and others.
		There's certainly not a lot of levity in the story of Manuel (Thornton), a convicted murderer who is unexpectedly released after serving 23 years.
		"Levity" doesn't have a great deal of plot, as it shuffles from one scene to the other, with Thornton's character trying to make a difference in the lives of those around him.

	Amazon.com: Levity: DVD: Billy Bob Thornton,Morgan Freeman,Holly Hunter,Kirsten Dunst,Manuel Aranguiz,Geoffrey ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Levity focuses on the characters, which are brought to life by the excellent cast (including Kirsten Dunst as a self-destructive club-goer).
		"Levity" brings forward the solid acting muscle of three consolidated actors and a rising new talent to tell a story about redemption in a way that leaves some ends open, yet makes you get up at the end and think positively about life and potential for overcoming guilt and negative past experiences.
		LEVITY is one of those quiet films that gains its strength from the characterizations and their interactions.

	Levity (2003) - A Hollywood Jesus Movie Review
		The message in the film, at least for me, was: In order to achieve Levity (lightness of being, freedom) you must first come to terms with the gravity of your own sin/reality.
		We were fortunate enough that the people at Studio Canal believed in the project enough to back Levity for the foreign market, and we got some independent financing for the domestic market: a combination of bank loans and some equity funding.
		But that’s one of the reasons that it appeals to me. The movie is about one man’s search for lightness and light in a world that has rejected him for a terrible mistake he made as a teenager.

	Welcome to Ethics Daily.com!
		“Levity,” a new film from writer-director Ed Solomon, follows a convict just released from prison after serving more than 20 years for murder.
		And as “Levity” simply but powerfully demonstrates, Manual can’t breathe because his world, his atmosphere, is dense with his own history.
		“Levity” is grounded by many themes, perhaps none more important than the destroying and saving of worlds and souls.

	Levity (2003) - About the Production
		It’s always gratifying to a filmmaker when others share his dream...and in attempting to bring his original screenplay of Levity to the screen, Ed Solomon discovered that many other talented people, both in front of and behind the camera, were willing to take a risk on a smaller non-Hollywood film.
		Kirsten Dunst was drawn to the project because she felt that Levity represented another opportunity to diversify her talents.
		“Levity truly is an independent film that wasn’t backed by a studio or financing entity when we put the movie together,” notes producer Adam Merims.

	Metromix. Movie review: 'Levity'
		Of course, "Levity" is an ironic title - even more so if you know Solomon made his mark as a writer with "It's Garry Shandling's Show" and gut-punchingly funny movies like the first "Men in Black" and the two "Bill and Ted" pictures.
		This debuting writer-director has a flair for outrageous humor and plugged-in topical gags, but he just doesn't employ them in "Levity." Solomon seems to be trying to play down, or even choke off, his own commercial facility and lay bare a dramatic depth he hasn't often revealed before.
		Good as this movie is, and strong as its intentions and execution may be, "Levity" seems, like Manual, imprisoned in its own sense of mission and gloom, seemingly unable to crack a smile.

	EI > DVD > Levity (2003)
		Though well-crafted, writer-director Ed Solomon's "Levity" is a preachy and pretentious character study that fails to live up to its promising billing.
		Despite an all-star cast that includes Billy Bob Thornton, Morgan Freeman, Holly Hunter and Kirsten Dunst, "Levity" is a plodding journey of the redemption of an ex-con (Billy Bob) who finds the sister (Holly Hunter) of the young man he murdered in his own youth, in hopes of finding forgiveness for his soul.
		Though the plot may sound like a total downer, there are some nice elements to "Levity." Still, Ed Solomon's tale of redemption and atonement is a bit too plodding for its own good.

		Their relationship predictably becomes romantic, and in a fortuitous opportunity to make amends for past wrongdoings, he just might be able to help Adele's son, Abner (named after her lost brother, and played by Geoffrey Wigdor), who is fast on his way to a life of crime, walk the path of the straight and narrow.
		Manual's serious crime is depicted as something of an accident; not at all pre-meditated, and perpetrated by a kid caught in a frightening moment.
		Levity presents questions worth exploring, although I certainly wouldn't recommend sitting through this film to do so.

		The actors are their usual reliable selves; you can't really blame them for the unlikely mess Levity becomes.
		He hasn't achieved levity, because although his good deed makes up for that gunshot blast of yesteryear, his dirty deed is left straggling since Adele severs her tie with him.
		Manuel isn't an angel, which is more reason to give "Levity" a chance, a film that would've benefited greatly by losing an art flourish(Manuel being followed by the boy's ghost), or two(Thornton's voice-overs).

	Levity (2003) Movie Review - The Hollywood News
		Levity is a deliberately paced character study that certainly has shades of Shawshank Redemption and Billy Bob Thornton's own Sling Blade.

	Levity (2003)
		Levity is what's sorely lacking from this painfully earnest and gloomy redemption drama.
		Beautifully shot in Montreal by the Coen brothers' regular cinematographer, Roger Deakins (Fargo), Levity is undermined by Solomon's obvious handling of the material.
		Unlike Monster's Ball or the powerful Dead Man Walking (1995), Levity is ultimately more affected than affecting with regard to the lead character's quest for forgiveness.

	Levity (2003) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		"Levity" is about redemption; it is about a lot of things inside something ironically simple, about philosophy and the human mind, about thoughts, second chances and about many other things if I want to say them.
		But "Levity" is different from 'Gardener' in the way that things are more difficult to understand; the film is truly philosophic.
		The music, a mix of powerful songs, is a key element in the development of the story, which maintains a mood of depression and sadness.

	Levity DVD Review (Billy Bob Thornton, Morgan Freeman) By Brendan Cullin - Empire Movies
		I was lucky enough to watch this movie on DVD in the comforts of my own home, which sometimes can make these dreary (and slow-moving, I might add) movies not so painful to watch.
		But just because Levity was a dreary and slow-moving, that does not mean it was a bad movie.
		There are also a few trailers, one for Levity, one for Laurel Canyon and one for Man Without a Past.

	Levity - Newsday.com
		Like "Happiness," "Life Is Beautiful" or "Endless Love" (which only seemed that way), the title of Ed Solomon's "Levity" has to be taken with a tablespoon of irony and a glance at Webster's.
		The actor seems more and more often to be hired for his gravity without being given a lot to do that he hasn't done before.
		Thornton is a decent actor, but slogging through "Levity" with his gray Jesus hair and perpetually solemn mien would be ungratifying work for anyone.

	Levity (2003): Billy Bob Thornton, Holly Hunter, Kirsten Dunst - PopMatters Film Review
		"Levity is by no means a standard Hollywood movie," says Ed Solomon, by way of stating the obvious.
		Memory seeps into every beautiful frame of Levity (shot by Roger Deakins, who discusses his own efforts to render a slightly unreal reality in the featurette), sometimes strangely visceral and always difficult.
		Manual Jordan (Thornton) is an ex-con, released against his will after serving 22 years for the murder of a 17-year-old convenience store clerk named Abner Easley (played in flashbacks by an appropriately pale Geoffrey Wigdor).

		"Levity" soundtrack is would be a fine addition to your "E" collection.
		Softer in tone and sound than much of his work, the "Levity" soundtrack does possess some similarities to the "Eels" newest recording, but with almost no vocals the songs instead come to life through some fine subtle playing and direction from Mr.
		Levity's brevity (gwah hah hah!) is the only downside.
