It&rsquo;s not a spectacle by any means but you should still see it inside the movie theater because it&rsquo;s the kind of careful storytelling that benefits from being fully inside of it. Getting lost in a story is much easier to accomplish in the pages of a great novel or the dark of a movie theater than if you wait around to Netflix and chill.<\/p>\n<p>The movie comes to us from one of our best LGBT directors, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0755158\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ira Sachs<\/a>. The New York based writer\/director made his feature debut 20 years ago with <em>The Delta<\/em> (1996) but recently he&rsquo;s been on quite a roll.<\/p>\n<p><em>Little Men<\/em>&nbsp;is not an adaptation of the Louisa May Alcott sequel to <em>Little Women<\/em>, but it does feel like a rich unexpected sequel to a more contemporary (future)&nbsp;classic.

But<em> Little Men<\/em> is better than dreamy, it&rsquo;s real. I&rsquo;ll wrap up quickly, too. If you haven&rsquo;t yet been fully convinced that Ira Sachs has become of our most important chroniclers of contemporary urban life, run to this third consecutive increasingly persuasive argument to that effect.<\/p>\n<p>After the addiction drama <em>Keep the Lights On <\/em>(wildly acclaimed by most critics, though I confess I was a holdout), the touching senior citizen romance <em>Love is Strange<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/2014\/01\/nrsundance\/\" target=\"_blank\">raved right here<\/a>)&nbsp;and this new poignantly observed gem (less explicitly an LGBT film than his other movies, but still beautifully inclusive) it&rsquo;s safe to say that the New York filmmaker, who recently turned fifty, is in the midst of his peak storytelling years.
