This week’s show is a study in contrast as we review and compare Hollywood’s painfully formulaic and offensive offering, “The Ugly Truth,” and the stubbornly independent, shoe-string budgeted, almost entirely improvised “Cut From Home.” What can we learn from the overworked, diluted scripts and direction of a Hollywood tentpole release — and of it’s antitheses — homemade, artistically satisfying, original cinema? And what does the future hold for this young art form?
