Tracking shots staged from a moving vehicle compose an Oregon town as its suburban features dissipate at the perimeter. As Old Joy progresses, the environment becomes more rural, more distanced, a catalyst for two old friends to consider how their current age and status may redefine who they were and how they feel about each other. Had Iron & Wine supplied the score instead of Yo La Tengo, beard folk would have made an apt translation into film.
