This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
This short film was a surprise. The storyline and script go a step beyond the expected so that what follows becomes delightful. The filming is not shakily distracting as other films of this genre can be; too often the filmmaker heavy handedly tries to manipulate the viewer into the position of believing they are watching a "real-time, man on the street" documentary. When the filmmaker forces this, the suspension of disbelief is spoiled and the film in general loses its way. There are some very good performances by both seasoned actors and some fresh faces that had me laughing out loud. There are too many films out there that fall into the mundane, and when encountering a clever one like this, it becomes a treat.
