Flew down to BendFilm Festival to see a friend's film, and everyone was talking about "Nicky's Birthday Camera." It had just had its first screening, sold out, and the word on the street was "I can't tell you anything-go see it!". I pulled some strings and snagged a ticket. Glad I did! What a great little film. Just what Indie is all about. Have you wondered what Robert Hays has been doing since "Airplane" !? Apparently, producing and starring in edgy, unique little movies like this one. First time director, Andrew J. Traister, does a tight job of keeping this odd and disturbing trip into the dark side of reality TV on track. Takes a while to get going, like any mystery, but when it does, hang on. Totally sucker-punched the breath out of the theater. Sexy, unflinching, and original. Good acting throughout (makes you forget its a "movie"), great DP, cool original music-I'd buy the soundtrack. I can't tell you anything more-go see it!
