Over the past couple of days, I watched two movies opening soon in NYC that represent the indie spirit at its best. One is a comedy called “Punching the Clown” that can be described as a mixture of HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and “Flight of the Conchords”, but much funnier. The other is “Jolene”, a darkly comic picaresque tale based on an E.L. Doctorow short story about a young woman from the South who survives physical and psychological battering from a number of men until she lands on her feet as a comic book artist in Los Angeles determined to tell her life story as a comic book.
