In this typically low-key comedy drama from independent writer/director Andrew Bujalski, Jeannie (Tilly Hatcher) and Lauren (Maggie Hatcher) are a pair of twin sisters living in Austin, TX, who are close without having much in common. Jeannie, who is confined to a wheelchair, runs a well-established vintage clothing store called Storyville with her longtime friend Amanda (Anne Dodge), while Lauren drifts from job to job and is pondering an offer to teach English in Kenya. Jeannie and Amanda have had a falling out and Jeannie is worried about her stake in the business, especially since the original partnership agreements were drawn up by Amanda's father. When Amanda suggests she may take legal action to take full control of Storyville, Jeannie decides she needs legal advice and turns to Merrill (Alex Karpovsky), a former boyfriend who has almost completed his law degree. Merrill is feeling frazzled as he tries to pass the bar exam and he welcomes the distraction, but it isn't long before he forgets one of the first rules of legal ethics and begins sleeping with Jeannie. Lauren, meanwhile, wants to be of assistance to her sister, but she gets roped into helping her mother with her myriad problems while trying to make sense of her own future. Beeswax was an official selection at the 2009 South by Southwest Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guid.
The über-low-key drama Beeswax embodies a stride forward for mumblecore progenitor Andrew Bujalski, though not a huge one. It's the tale of twin sisters in Austin, TX -- the paraplegic, wheelchair-bound Jeannie and the jobless, single Lauren (played by real-life twins Tilly and Maggie Hatcher, respectively). The former runs a vintage clothing boutique called Storyville, the latter, fresh from a recent breakup, is considering accepting a job that will involve teaching English in Nairobi. A conflict erupts between Jeannie and her business partner, Amanda (Anne Dodge), involving the proprietorship of Storyville; Jeannie seeks legal counsel, fearing that the conniving Amanda will sue her. Meanwhile, Jeannie also falls into a renewed romance and a deeper friendship with one of her exes, genial law student Merrill (Alex Karpovsky).
