   Sara Driver's When Pigs Fly is a whimsical ghost story in which clinically depressed jazz musician Alfred Molina is given a haunted rocking chair by his well-meaning lodger. Two ghosts - his former pub matron and a little girl - then become part of his life and help him get out of his funk, though there is a quid pro quo involved (leading to the film's only chill). A lot of neat ideas here, but I'm not sure it all comes together with any kind of coherence. The dream sequences, for example, don't really tell us much of anything the script doesn't. "Ghost-vision" is interesting, but how is Molina connecting with his past really giving him a future? So I'm left liking it for its various parts, especially the lore around the way hauntings work, but am underwhelmed by the overall result. 1 month 1 week ago

   This is almost a really wonderful Kaurismaki film, but it's just a little too cute. Also, Seymour Cassel is such a likeable actor that I just couldn't buy him as an 100% evil character. 1 year 4 months ago
