Filmmaking lives and thrives in St. Louis. The first Shorts Program: Dramatic Shorts plays Sunday, August 14th at Noon at the Tivoli as part of the St. Louis Filmmakers Showcase and while we, as members of the general public, have a tendency to reward predicable entertainment with our ticket money, it’s often these unusual shorts that are the most satisfying. There are twelve shorts in this presentation which runs about 100 minutes. Cinema St. Louis did an outstanding job with their selection of these as not one is less than impressive.
The menu kicks off with 14:28, an 8-minute look at three assassins who travel back in time to plant a bomb in a theater (filmed at the Keller 8!) that will kill a politician 20 years in the future. This plays like a scene from a feature film and, like most time travel stories, leads to more questions than answers. Why...
