SUNDANCE REVIEW: Like Crazy

PARK CITY -- (U.S. Dramatic Competition) Bruisingly bittersweet and made with the kind of tenderness that suggests a deep personal significance, "Like Crazy" chronicles a young love so deep it doesn't die even when, perhaps, it should.

Its elliptical construction and avoidance of melodrama may disqualify it for the most mainstream audience, but the film's undeniable beauty shouldn't be a tough sell to moviegoers who can take some actual pain (as opposed to contrived rom-com obstacles) along with their romance.
