Common Sense Media
Rating: 4/4 --
Lost in "Forrester's" dismissal is appreciation for its relatively piss-and-vinegar approach to the act of creating fiction. Jazzy, classicist and a bit meta, the film's unexpectedly urbane quirks resemble Jonathan Demme films at their mainstream best.

Doesn't fully live up to all the expectations but is still enjoyable.
