I saw Jindabyne at the Telluride Film Festival last year, and it is an artfully made, albeit somewhat dark, movie. The film is about what happens when a group of men in Australia go on a fishing trip to a remote mountain river, find the body of a dead girl there, and tether her body to a tree in the river so they can finish their fishing trip, rather than immediately calling the police. This decision has tremendous ramifications for the men, tearing apart their small town, their families, and their friendship. Laura Linney and Gabriel Byrne both turn in brilliant performances in the film, which was adapted from a Raymond Carver short story and directed by Ray Lawrence.Jindabyne doesn't officially open (in limited release) until April 27, but you can still get geared up about it. Sony Pictures Classics has released a trailer for the film, which you can find at the links below. You can also read the review of the Jindabyne from Telluride, and check out our video interview with Laura Linney about the film.

Sounds like something my father would do. There is this joke in our family about the time my father and his best friend went on a fishing trip alone. One of many trips, in his bass boat. Out in some small tributary in the middle of nowhere in the early morning, my father's best friend choked on a piece of ham sandwich. It was lodged in his windpipe and the situation became quite dire. His breathing was absolutely cut off. Fortunately, my father was able, after many tries with the Heimlich, to get the offending bite of ham and cheese to pop out, thus saving the day and his friend's life.
After his friend recovered they were musing over the incident and his friend Wayne asked my father, "My God, what would you have done if you'd been unsuccessful and I'd died?" Without missing a beat my father said, "Well, I'd guess after I finished up all my day's fishing I would of taken your body back in to the sherriff."
There was another incident where my father imbedded a fish hook deep in his thumb by accident at the beginning of the day. He was unable to remove it so he cut if off parallel with his skin so that it would not impede his day's fishing. He called me to accompany him to the emergency room when he got in from his boat that evening. I don't know what it is about some men and their fishing, but it apparently is a very addictive pasttime.
