Description	Already bent by the demands of his home life – fatherhood, a faltering marriage, and a submerged mortgage – a tradesman struggles to balance his own appetites and expectations with those of a friend in need. Everything Strange and New is an intimate portrait of ordinary people and their longing for certainty in uncertain times. Wayne is a carpenter, no longer young but uneasy with the emotional complexities of adulthood. Aimless hours spent with Leo, his newly-divorced drinking buddy, offer some relief to the heavy gravity at home, where his kids run roughshod over his increasingly unstable wife. Living between these worlds leaves Wayne feeling like a character in someone else's story. Ultimately, a violent spasm rouses him from this fevered American dream. In his feature debut, veteran cinematographer Frazer Bradshaw infuses conventional narrative storytelling with his trademark film poetics. Stylistically, the movie owes more to European and Asian pastorals – films by Tarkovsky, Bresson, and the young Zhang Yimou – than to contemporary US cinema. With its concise pacing and wider implications, Everything Strange and New considers the proposition of living life with an economy of expression.

Even though it was full of negativity, the movie was alright until the homosexual scene. A man going down on another man? This isn't enertainment, this isn't a portrayal of what some people go through, this is complete garbage.

A study in apathy. Pretty good. Thank you Republicans: Reagan, Bush, all the nutty red state Congressmen. You bled us dry, not with the boogieman of taxes, but with an ever smaller piece of the pie for the majority, an ever larger piece for the wealthy elite who make all the rules. Now there simply ain't enough money circulating to consumers to fuel the economy any longer. You gave us the big real estate boondoggle to make us think we were still rich, when of course, we were really broke, and broken.

Confronting a gay experiment amidst regular relationships. Average american family and friends struggling with all the situations almost we can find ourselves in. Cashflow, kids, drugs, a man recieving his first blow job from another man. that was the good part
