Apple Jack (2003)

Film making that never forgets it's responsibility to entertain the audience.

[10/10 · 15 November 2003]

Too often, short films are vanity projects, or expensive exercises in personal therapy, of interest to the perpetrator and to no one else. It is the rare short that is intended to entertain as well as communicate. Apple Jack is such a film, a dark, quirky, slyly humorous tale of karmic justice told in a deft sure fashion. Technically assured, polished, faultlessly rhythmic, simply gorgeous visually. Sharply etched performances. A pure gem. Thank you for the treat.
