Shortbus

The much rumored-about new film from John Cameron Mitchell ("Hedwig And The Angry Inch") comes to the US this fall following its sold-out premiere at the Cannes Film Festival where it received a ten-minute standing ovation. "Shortbus" is an engaging study of love and lust; a playful comedy about oddball New Yorkers in search of love, happiness, and the perfect orgasm. The soundtrack includes all the original songs from the film, composed by singer-songwriter Scott Matthew. Other contributors include Yo La Tengo, Animal Collective, Azure Ray, The Ark, and Hidden Cameras.
