I had the opportunity to watch a private screener of the devastatingly beautiful film by Gavin Michael Booth called Last Call. The entire film is done in split screen and it really does work for this story.
I thought the script was magnificent. The dialogue was authentic, especially for depicting the struggles of depression brought on by a tragic event and the plight of a single mother concerned about her son.
The performances of Sarah Booth and Daved Wilkins complimented one another, making their journey all the more engaging. The melancholy score is done to absolute perfection and felt like a third character at times. Sometimes we forget how crucial music is to driving a film, this one will make you remember. Take a bow Adrian Ellis.
Sarah Booth's nuanced performance was award worthy. From the first couple of minutes, Sarah made me think of the wonderful actress Mare Winningham. Like Mare, Sarah is able to convey a plethora of emotion without uttering a word.
See this film, it won't put a smile on your face or bring you out of the doldrums but perhaps it will make you more aware of how detrimental emotional pain can be for some.
