Prince of Jersey

"Prince of Jersey" screened at our film festival, the SouthSide Film Festival, in 2005 and was highly talked about from all in attendance and especially by our Jury. The director, Alexander Maslow, displays an understanding and talent for telling a compelling story. There is an atmosphere captured in this film, which is not often the case by modern trends in film-making. The performances by all the actors are entirely believable and engaging. The cinematography, done by Jordan Slovin, is perfect for the story being told. Maslow and Jordan allow the viewer to feel the atmosphere for the setting of this movie in addition to the state of mind and viewpoint of the main character, Paul. As a thesis film, "Prince of Jersey" shows much promise for Maslow both as a writer and a director. The cast was excellent, the production was hermetic, and it was a great pleasure for us to screen it at our festival.
