Trade of Innocents (2012)
Important films come none too often
Even well-made films dealing with truly disturbing issues have a hard time finding a sensitive and appreciative audience. This film unfolds like the great films of old when storytelling and solid acting were as much appreciated as people jumping off a hundred story building and everything blowing up (I like those movies too but sometimes I don't mind having to think when watching a film). Trade of Innocents is compelling to watch, makes me want to take action, all the while caught-up in a beautiful shot film with actors I have always enjoyed. Sometimes the best films simply make you feel something very human. This one did that for me and I don't ask movies to do much more. I'm glad I saw it.
The Giant Mechanical Man (2012)
All the elements
All the elements of great filmmaking are here in this heartfelt, charming Romantic Drama. The story's strength is rooted in human emotions that finds a wide audience. The screenplay is polished without being totally predictable. The acting is wonderful and I cared about the leads throughout. Many movies miss the mark as they strive for so much they leave their characters behind. This film never forgets what is most important to the audience. It is shot exceptionally well and the color grading is robust and highly cinematic. I come away from watching this well-executed film completely satisfied and aspire to one day shoot something half as good. For indie filmmakers and the general public alike, this is how it's done. The film is a simple gem worth watching several times.
