    Excellent human interest story about an Scottish imagrant's problem with a DUI and his struggle to void deportation. Great performance by Robert Carlyle. Love the soundtrack!

    Lewy’s script doesn’t cop out with any sentimental redemption, but neither does it establish why the self-destructive Lachlan deserves our sympathy.

    In some sense, California Solo is like meeting an engaging stranger: At first there's a certain air of enigmatic mystery that makes you want to spend time with them, but eventually things turn awkward and you just want to get away.

    Carlyle gives a quietly engaging performance as a Golden State farmworker with a secret in the likable indie California Solo.
