If I Could Run (2018)
Amazing Film
This is an amazing movie. I saw an early screening of it in April 2018 and it is one of the best movies I've ever seen. This movie is absolutely incredible, the story is amazing, and it made me cry at least five times. I had a great time watching this movie, I truly enjoyed it, I even plan to see it again when it is officially out.
Strange Bird (2017)
If this movie were a meal, it would be a very satisfying.
The content is amazing - all the little details that put the audience firmly in the middle of another world. The style is amazing - why the close up on the eyes? Because they're cool is why. I like to think that as we progress as a civilization we will keep a few such elegant idiosyncrasies knocking around. The plastic, chrome and glass sets, objects and architecture all looked clean and functional and the way that they suck the color out of a scene worked well and gave the film a distinctive palette. I have only one criticism here - why do all the computer displays look like Macs? Surely a touch unrealistic ;)
The story is amazing - complicated, yes, but also engrossing, exciting and surpassing. There are elements here that are only hinted at, but which give the plot a depth increasingly lacking in modern action flicks. And it asks the kind of questions about morality, justice, exploitation and society that'll keep you thinking for much longer that the film's two and some hours.
The direction and performances are amazing - the pre-visualization on this movie must have been a nightmare for a small budget indie film.
The Actors delivers a first class performance , but the discovery of this film is Preslee Bishop as Carrie Sane. Who saw the film and didn't share her terror and vulnerability? Little touches such as the way she clings to the surrounding actors, almost like a baby's reflex, make her a character you immediately care about, innocent and tragic.
Anyway, if that's not enough to recommend the film, then you'll probably never find another one you like again on a indie level. But if you need another reason, go to see it just for the great shotss.
