Clouded Billy Cuff (2008)
Dangerous...
This is a film made by new filmmakers and it's dangerous. It's incredible how emotionally reticent this flick was. It's dangerous what the DP can do with the limited equipment they had, obviously because they weren't back by Hollywood studios, but I think it's all the better because of it.
Clouded Billy Cuff follows a fairly weak individual as he tries, and fails, to triumph over his seemingly genetic curse thwarting him to find, and maintain, any company at all.
The theme of the movie struck me particularly close to home because I have an older brother who joined the war to fight in Iraq. I remember specifically that he came home one day, ironically enough on his motorcycle- the similarities here are disgusting- and told me of his news. I was angry at him and thought it stupid and flashy. After I saw the scene where Billy tells his brother he enlisted, I got very emotionally invested in the character.
Great picture. Dangerous.
