Anderson's Cross (2010)
pass
I have to agree with "gotcha74" about this film. There are so many problems on both the creative and technical sides.
Jerome Elston Scott must really think highly of himself to think that he can pass himself off as a teenager. Putting on a big wig does not make an obviously middle age man look 17. (By the way, they should fire the hair person on this production because his hair changes in every other shot, although continuity is the least of this film's problems.)
Ego is exactly the correct word! Not only does a middle age man cast himself as a high-schooler, but he writes a script in which he has the whole town - practically - wanting to sleep with him? Did anybody buy that? This film needs to cut out about 30 minutes, it's too long. There are way too many unnecessary scenes that does not enhance the story. First rule of filmmaking: If it doesn't add to the story, you don't need it.
Movies showing teenagers having sex is not edgy anymore, yet the filmmaker wants to beat you over the head with it. The only sex scene that was actually shown was horribly acted. There was no chemistry between the Kevin and Tracy character. It seems as if it was his first time and she looked really bored, yet they are supposed to be in love? As much as I support independent film making, I cannot recommend this film.
