This weekend the Safdie Brothers, Josh and Benny, were in town for their new film Daddy Longlegs, currently showing at the Northwest Film Forum.  During their time here, they also taught a class entitled "Emotionally Sloppy: A Crash-Course in Cinema of the Gut," which gives you a window into what the film is like--mumblecore meets Cassavetes in its loose, shaggy style and an emphasis on exploration of character over plot.  Taking place in a quasi-timeless New York City, the Safdies' second feature is a semi-autobiographical look at a dad, played by Ronald Bronstein, who is wildly incompetent but brings a lot of chaotic fun to his two grade school-aged sons' lives during the two weeks of the year when he has custody. 

The SunBreak has three pairs of tickets to Daddy Longlegs to give away during the rest of its Northwest Film Forum run.  We'll be drawing three winners on Tuesday at noon. Enter below for your chance to win.
