5. Cutie and Boxer
Rank by site 8, Rank by IMDb 3; Overal score = 11 points
Directed by Zachary Heinzerling
Heinzerling’s film reminds us that not all art is famous and not all artists are highly paid. It deals with more down-to-earth art as it reveals the life of Ushio and Noriko Shinohara, a pair of Japanese artists struggling to make it in New York. The husband and wife manage to use their love as a backbone of their art and supplement each other’s work.
