I was able to catch "The Last Stop Café" by chance recently at the "Nashville Film Festival". Not anticipating any more than a low-budget, angsty film nerd piece, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the suspense/film noir short as a whole, in particularly in the cinematography and musical score as well as balanced performances from its leads (Christy Lynn Smith and David Atkinson).
While the suspense story seemed just a little contrived to me (ie. some plot devices and lines of dialogue obviously inserted to move the story to the "pay-off" ending), writer-director David H. Jeffery successfully utilizes picture, sound and music as performers, to compliment his talented flesh and blood cast.
The result is a very entertaining independent short, made with the quality of an A-List studio feature.
