I just saw ...Funny you should mention short movies. I just saw a longish one (60 min) yesterday. I walked 20 min through a drizzle to get to the theater to support this local film production, and, well, it was one of those with virtually no story.<br /><br />It was a mockumentary of a bunch of people who all live in the same apartment block telling their stories to an off-screen interviewer. There was no development and no finale. Just a bunch of actors portraying well-known stereotypes (the gay, the dyke, the retard, etc etc). I'm sure they were buddies of the director who told them, "Just improvise, we'll edit it into some sort of story."<br /><br />Um, no. I'm sure the cast and crew loved it at the launch party with a couple of sherries under their belts, but those of us who actually paid money to see it won't be supporting local productions again until the memory of this borefest has faded.Martin_Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06872780969179149381noreply@blogger.com
