Storyline

"Girl With Gun" is a film about Gwen Hunter, whose best friend Mitzi and on-and-off love Dan thinks she is an ordinary 20-something working woman. In reality, she is the Nightingale, an assassin who helps the innocent when they cannot help themselves. However, her double life leads her to contemplate whether it is worth it, having come so close to death only earlier that morning while on assignment, wondering whether she should just settle down with Dan to lead a normal life like Mitzi's.

User Reviews

Committed Team, Commendable Project

Russ Emanuel has outdone himself with "Girl With Gun." The sets, props, costumes, choreography and music are all top notch. He has managed to squeeze comedy, action, suspense and drama into this 14-minute film, an excellent attempt to combine genre's for a piece that works well as both entertainment and a calling card. The story is genre-specific with a new bent - a female assassin, tough and gritty on the job, is nothing more than a soft, lonely woman with a penchant for teddy bears and a need for a quiet Saturday night at home. Russ has continued to increase his burden on each project and keeps managing to come through on top, highly commendable. Looking forward to more from this guy.
