Nicole Holofcener’s Friends with Money, the Sundance Film festival’s debut flick, had two showings last night at the Eccles — at 6:45 and 9:30 pm. It’s now 10:10 am Friday and and I haven’t found one quickie review anywhere yet. C’mon, press contingent! …it’s a bit early in the festival to be dragging ass. (That means you, Indiewire.) Yesterday I asked a friend to e-mail me a fast ten-word review of Friends with Money — he responded with one. The film costars Jennifer Aniston, Catherine Keener, Joan Cusack, Frances McDormand, Jason Isaacs (who’s fantastic in Nine Lives, which will soon be out on DVD) and Scott Caan.
