'Squid and Whale,' a Model of an Indie Film

NPR | By Kenneth Turan

Published October 13, 2005 at 11:00 PM CDT

The film The Squid and the Whale won two awards at this year's Sundance film festival, and is now in theaters.

Morning Edition and Los Angeles Times film critic Kenneth Turan says the movie deserves both awards, calling it "acutely observed [and] faultlessly acted."
