I wrote about feeling slightly off-balance, about the relentlessness of the quarter system and about trying to trust a process I did not yet fully understand.

Theater department stages ‘American Idiot’ at the Hopkins Center for the Arts

Even describing “I Love Boosters” presents a strange challenge. It’s a film so committed to its own weirdness that its plot turns and genre-bending are almost impossible to believe without actually seeing it. For any of its flaws, of which there are several, there’s no denying that the movie is the product of the singular, uncompromising vision of writer-director Boots Riley.
