VIFF 2013 review: The Broken Circle Breakdown

(Belgium/Netherlands)

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      Compelling characters in an unusual settings—a bluegrass band in Belgium, believe it or not!—make for a mostly entertaining run, especially since that cast performs all its own music. But the tale betrays its roots on stage in the final innings, when actors speechify too much and things take a few too many melodramatic turns.

      Rio, October 6 (1:30 p.m.); Playhouse, October 9 (9 p.m.)
