The post Nathan Silver – The Great Pretender (2018) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

A rural group home for pregnant teen-agers is the setting for this intimately detailed, sharply observed modernist melodrama, directed by Nathan Silver. The director’s mother, Cindy Silver, plays Carla Gottlieb, the residence’s founder and leader. Carla—herself a onetime unwed mother—hosts five girls at a time; in quiet but intense confessional scenes of formal sharing or offhand chat, they discuss their difficult situations. The troubles ramp up with the arrival of Carla’s grown nephew, Robbie (David Dahlbom), newly separated from his wife, who volunteers for a two-week stint as a handyman. While there, Robbie becomes a part of the household and falls in love with Nina (India Menuez), one of the pregnant women, sparking conflict with her boyfriend, Chase (Casey Drogin). Silver’s incisive direction blends patient discernment and expressive angularity; he develops his characters in deft and rapid strokes and builds tension with an almost imperceptible heightening of tone and darkening of mood. The involuted acting and the freestyle cinematography, intensely sensitive to the flickers of the moment, yield sensual and emotional wonders. With a superbly poised, experienced independent-film cast that includes Gina Piersanti (“It Felt Like Love”), Hannah Gross (“I Used to Be Darker”), and Tallie Medel (“The Unspeakable Act”).

Exit Elena Flickers With Ordinary Madness
“The comedies of John Cassavetes cut deeper,” Thom Andersen explains in Los Angeles Plays Itself, “because he had an eye and an ear for ordinary madness—those flickers of lunacy that can separate us from our fellows.” Nathan Silver’s Exit Elena adopts many working methods typical of a Cassavetes production—shot almost entirely in Silver’s family home, the film stars his girlfriend (Kia Davis, who is superb), his mother (Cindy Silver), and himself—but its affinity with a film like Love Streams, its closest likeness,runs deeper than their shared independent sensibility. Silver locates the ordinary madness bubbling just beneath the surface of his own life, and flickers of lunacy abound: Exit Elena relates the story of a young live-in aide’s time caring for the elderly Florence (Gert O’Connell), but it proves to be the other residents of her suburban Boston home who require the most attention. Cindy, Florence’s daughter-in-law, counts her friendship among Elena’s responsibilities as an employee of the family, plying her with wine and whisking her along to Zumba class oblivious to her uninterest. Meanwhile Jim, Cindy’s husband, plans his days around the promise of vague “business meetings” that never materialize, lamenting the unprofessionalism of his home office. Desperation is in the air, and loneliness clings to the furniture. When their son Nathan, in a perpetual state of anxiety and agitation, returns home after an unexplained absence, the portrait is complete: Here is a family so lonely together that they long desperately for a new member, any member, to appear and shake things up.
