Is Sadie Benning the Rimbaud of cinema?
I mean that simply in astonishment that this masterly short was made when she was sixteen years old. A diaristic peer out from beneath a manhole cover, it's a kid's first dip of a pinky toe into the adult world, rendered as a series of swirly, surreal segments of "The Price Is Right," supermarket tabloids read to the tune of AM radio, and friends' DUIs re-enacted using one's brother's Tonka toys. About as on the nose of where we are as NATURAL BORN KILLERS and about as formally daring as SCORPIO RISING (if more modest), A NEW YEAR is testament to a little-known fact: this kid is--overused word, so watch it--a genius.
