Amazing accomplishment by Edwards and Mei. Being a connoisseur of the old black and whites, I relished in the suspense and fast-gun witty quips. Edwards and Mei have shown tremendous imagination and creativity and are to be commended for this piece of work,(writing, directing, producing) especially on such a limited budget. If this genre is your cup of tea, then "Icarus Descending" will be your shot of rye......and this ain't pie in the sky, sister!
