Fay Grim
Hal Hartley's sequel to his 1997 success 'Henry Fool' is a kooky espionage thriller with Parker Posey as the titular single mum, raising her and Henry's son after Henry went on the lam in the wake of an accidental crime. Fay's brother Simon has been languishing in prison after aiding Henry in his escape, but now Fay has an opportunity to get him out via CIA man Jeff Goldblum. Witty and intelligent with moments of sheer lunacy, Hartley's tongue-in-cheek spy games take a good-humoured swipe at American foreign policy. Saffron Burrows and James Urbaniak also star.
