Personal Velocity 
Dir. Rebecca Miller US 2002
Personal Velocity made a splash at Sundance 2002 and took home the coveted Grand Jury Prize. The film is a series of vignettes of three women's lives, each on the brink of change as they free themselves of the men who constrain them. The three portraits, starring Kyra Sedgwick, Parker Posey and Fairuza Balk, represent women of different classes whose stories are linked by a small narrative thread and by their similar circumstance. Fathers and the absence of their love figure prominently in each story. It is interesting to note that director Rebecca Miller is the daughter of playwright Arthur Miller and married to actor Daniel Day Lewis. In Personal Velocity, Miller creates a portrait both literate and painterly, making it apparent that she has the artistic know-how to hold her own with the men in her life. (85m)
