Skye is AWESOME; Academy, Take Notice !

I must say that this is one of my favorite shorts of all time. I luckily came across it when I was at an LA Film Festival. I'm a huge film festival buff. All the actors and actresses were amazing in their parts. The emotional depth of characters portrayed was immense. Mindblowing acting acting by Skye McCole Bartusiak and the rest.

Skye McCole Bartusiak is an amazing actress for her age. She is really talented. This film is pure proof. She can deliver a take-no-prisoners, scorching performance as Sarah, the little girl. She is just truly Oscar material. She is the future of Hollywood. Go watch this short if you want to see a GOOD fim, other than that crap little kids films.

All in all, if this movie doesn't win 8 Oscars, there's no justice in this world.
