Richard Propes, aka The Independent Critic, has posted a very thoughtful review of the movie. An excerpt:
What you perhaps cannot imagine, “The Lionshare” takes for granted. What used to seem foreign is now an essential part of our being, and its Bernhard’s ability to make this all seem so freakin’ ordinary that makes “The Lionshare” an effective piece of cinema.
With music at its very core, “The Lionshare” feels like a film that belongs in the MTV universe. Featuring stellar original tunes by cast member Bracey Smith, “The Lionshare” plays out like a unique mixing of traditional cinema, performance art, poetry and coffeehouse concert. It’s as if Bernhard visited his local coffeehouse, listened to the conversations going on amidst the music and created a film based upon the everyday lives of its inhabitants.
