Sharp, warmhearted, and consistently surprising, Occupy Texas answers the age-old question: What happens when a scruffy, longtime New York Occupy protestor comes home to Texas? When his parents die, disheveled 20-something Beau (screenwriter Gene Gallerano) is summoned back to Dallas. His two younger sisters need their brother's love, support, and guidance, but he's not prepared for the job. Director Jeff Barry skillfully prioritizes colorful people and vivid places to generate a down-to-earth, believable energy that captures the emotional experience of these complex characters. Featuring a who's who of Texas actors, the film's soul is anchored by newcomer Catherine Elvir as 13-year-old Arden. Her scenes with big brother Beau jump off the screen with infectious love and laughter. Meanwhile, iPhone-obsessed older sister Claire (Lorelei Linklater) stares with sardonic disapproval. An original and funny dysfunctional-family drama, Occupy Texas combines an indie edge with a glossy glow to ask: What is normal? (Mill Valley Film Festival)
