YO LA TENGO SOUNDTRACK RELEASE WITH AN INTERVIEW WITH SCREENWRITER JON RAYMOND!
A beautiful film made by Kelly Reichart in 2004. Shot in Portland and the Cascade Mountains, the film captures the feel of our region better than any other (maybe tied with DRUGSTORE COWBOY and MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO).
The movie follows two old friends who are growing apart as they embark on a road trip and manages to dodge all the conventions of telling that well worn story. It's just straight up beautiful and tells the truth.
Mississippi Records is showing Old Joy to celebrate the understated beautiful soundtrack by Yo La Tengo being released on vinyl for the first time.
Co-script writer Jon Raymond will be interviewed by Mississippi Records Eric Isaacson after the movie.
