None of that embarrassment occurs in A Real Pain, the new film by actor-director Jesse Eisenberg, which marked its World Premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this year.

No work of art exists in a vacuum. But if we imagined for a moment that the 11th album by Sleater-Kinney – the evergreen duo of singing guitarists Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker – had arrived free of context, without the baggage of life events, its 10 songs might land in certain ways, and maybe not others.Perhaps the sharpness of its pointillist post-punk would garner effusive praise, or the crackle of its melodies.
