PRIZEWINNER American Mavericks, New York “Penny Allen’s Property’ was produced and fi- nanced entirely in Portland, Ore., and the result is a movie with its own style, personality, and integrity. ‘Property’ recalls the united collection of aging ex-hippies and revolutionaries of Alain Tanner’s ‘Jonah Who Will Be 25 in the Year 2000,’yet it has a rowdy pioneer wit that seems distinctively Northwestern, and an understanding of its eccentrics ’ personalities that never rules out the possibility that they might at any moment come to blows with each other. I t’s a healthy tension, and gives the movie a suspenseful dimension that it otherwise might have lacked.
