late fall 2009 series

Look no furthur: You won't find three more appealing films than these.

Sure, things are messy in these hipsters' lives, particularly their love lives, but it's the kind of messiness that's really fun to watch! Mumblecore pioneer Bujalski's third feature, Beeswax, achieves a new level of maturity in its story of two sisters (real-life twins Tilly and Maggie Hatcher) living in hipster capital Austin, falling in and out of relationships while the complications of a business situation involving a vintage store play out. Spacey queen of hipster cinema, Zooey Deschanel, stars in the sleeper hit of the summer, (500) Days of Summer, and if you weren't already one of her fans, you will be. And Unmade Beds, set among hipster bohemians squatting in East London, is a gorgeous valentine to 20-something love and life, featuring a smashing soundtrack including songs by Kimya Dawson, Daniel Johnston, Tindersticks, and (We are) Performance.
