Meanwhile (2011)
Now available on DVD!
Meanwhile concerns Joe Fulton, a man who can do anything from fixing your sink to arranging international financing for a construction project. He produces online advertising and he’s written a big fat novel. He’s also a pretty good drummer. But success eludes him.
Meanwhile DVD (2012)
Hal Hartley’s first feature film since 2006 is now available on DVD!
“Meanwhile is a riveting return to the intimate philosophical storytelling that characterizes Hartley’s cinema in the era of The Unbelievable Truth (1989), Trust (1990), Simple Men (1992), and Amateur (1994). It doesn’t drag its coattails in the romantic glory of those films, however, being fully attuned to the harsh realities of 21st century survival.” —Graham Fuller, Artinfo

“Caroline” is by Pete Galub and his band, the Annuals, circa 2002 from the album Boy Gone Wrong. Pete has another song in the film too and is close to finishing a new album. I’ve been a fan for years. Hope you enjoy it.

To mark the halfway point in our Meanwhile/Kickstarter pledge drive, here’s a song I made for Meanwhile but didn’t use. It starts with the melody of Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition” and morphs into two themes I do use throughout the film.
