When star-crossed misfits--he's pathologically shy and she has Tourette's syndrome--meet in the parking lot of a store from which they've each separately shoplifted, they know they're meant to be together. But their inability to fit in compels them to hit the road on a wild odyssey to nowhere. Nuanced, demanding performances lift this one above the more run-of-the-mill "lovers at large" fare. Tunney won the Best Actress cup at the Venice Film Festival. [More]

Reviews for Niagara, Niagara
Though ostensibly honest in its depiction of Tourette's, those with Tourette's may take offense at the implication that they're psychos
Tunney...is often mesmerizing as the afflicted young woman. Niagara Niagara also boasts a fine soundtrack and was appealingly lensed in upstate New York.
To term her work a tour-de-force is not to imply that she attacks the scenery; Tunney's effectiveness lies in her modulation and vulnerability.
