	You Can Count on Me (2000): Laura Linney, Mark Ruffalo, Rory Culkin, Matthew Broderick - PopMatters Film Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In You Can Count on Me, writer-director Ken Lonergan explores their strained relationship as adults.
		This functions on two levels: comic relief and the means by which Sammy is able to act out in ways we can only assume she was unable to as a young girl growing into adulthood.
		While You Can Count on Me features talented actors, their skills are no match for Lonergan's less-than-stimulating dialogue.

		You Can Count on Me has a linear story, but what matters more is the relationship between siblings Sammy and Terry, and how their reacquaintance affects both their lives.
		You Can Count on Me is an actor's dream, since its allows a wide variety of emotion without resorting to melodramatics, and there is concrete development and depth to each role.

	You Can Count on Me FrancisUrquhart (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		You Can Count On Me is the strongest written and acted family drama I've ever seen.
		Linney's pain can be seen in how she prepares for her brother's return, in her desire for order in all things, and in her penchant for the reckless (as long as such recklessness is papered over by a seemingly staid conservative existence).
		Better, You Can Count On Me eschews stock secondary characters, infusing each (Linney's boss Matthew Broderick, her minister, her boyfriend, her ex-husband, the town sheriff) with multi-layered character traits in compressed time.

	You Can Count on Me (2000)
		According to writer-director Kenneth Lonergan, You Can Count on Me began life as a short play, a piece which made it into the final film as a fateful lunch between brother and sister early on in the movie.
		That single cut told me that what would follow would be absolute brilliance, and the rest film lives up to that subtlety of technique.
		In fact, the characters are just as clueless about their motivations and flaws at the end as they were at the beginning, but we have been witness to everything and understand all.

		You Can Count On Me You Can Count On Me You Can Count On Me is a small independent film from writer and first time director Kenneth Lonergan.
		He came up with quite a beauty for his directorial debut, this wonderful and sad film about a grown sister and brother who were orphaned as children when their parents died in a tragic accident.
		For this to be written by a man astounds me because this reasoning hits the nail on the head.

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: You Can Count on Me
		You Can Count on Me's dialogue crackles with wit and wry observation, even during its most poignant moments, and the chemistry between cast members is as genuine and warm and rough-edged as that of any real family or small-town community.
		Linney, who was nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for her performance (and won several smaller, smarter awards, as did Lonergan and the film as a whole), heads a cast of startling breakthrough performances, each of which, no matter how antagonistic, invites themselves into the viewer's heart.
		It's a testament to the cast — and to Lonergan's astounding dexterity as a debutante director — that You Can Count on Me manages to nimbly dance from laughter to tears in a quick turn and yet never succumb to the deathtraps of slapstick or maudlin preciousness.

	You Can Count On Me (2000) - RUTHLESS REVIEWS: Movies
		You Can Count on Me is set in Scottsboro, a small town in upstate New York so generic and underpopulated that the film could have been shot on a studio back lot.
		Not just aesthetically unadventurous, You Can Count on Me is, in every way, a throwback to the Eisenhower age.

		All the praise being heaped on "You Can Count on Me," the filmmaking debut of New York playwright Kenneth Lonergan, may say more about the tepid state of American cinema in 2000 than about this wry, modestly appealing small-town drama.
		"You Can Count on Me" certainly ranks highly on both the Grape Nuts and the ganja scales, although it may be difficult for any movie to top "Wonder Boys" in either category.
		Lonergan's direction in "You Can Count on Me" is clean and unshowy, and lets the characters drive the movie.

		Both times, there is a reversal of expected roles: Sammy is nostalgic for the day when clergy would scare sinners with thoughts of hell, while the new pastor is more concerned with identifying motives than with condemning behavior.
