Moon Manor

"Moon Mansion" like other gems of 2020/2021 such as Red Rocket, Nine Days, The Novice, Mass, Sand Storm, and The Hard They Fall show uniqueness, creativity, originality in their scripts. They made you think, question life, and reflect on your day-to-day actions.

"Moon Mansion" with direction of Machete Bang Bang & Erin Granata has a beautiful performance by James 'Jimmy' Carrozo as himself. Jimmy decides to gather a bunch of friends, especially the ones who gave him the best memories in life for his last day in this world, a "party" he calls "FUN-eral".

This movie is original, raw, sometimes funny and the ensemble cast enhances the plot.

A MUST SEE!!!

Again it's sad when we get old with sickness and flashback old times is what try to demonstrate here. I would say it's real life situation and people when some ages must echo this.

Moon Manor (2021) was co-written and co-directed by Machete Bang Bang and Erin Granat.

James 'Jimmy' Carrozo plays himself. In the movie, Carrozo has decided to commit suicide because he's losing his memory. He wants to leave the world in his own way. H e invites his friends to a "fun"eral, and will take the medicines when he decides the time is right.

The plot of the movie is what happens on that evening. Many friends arrive, and there's also an uninvited guest. This as a non-human creature, but it's not Death.

This movie sounds strange, but I would prefer to call it unusual. It was interesting and well acted. I recommend it.

We saw Moon Manor virtually as part of ImageOut, the excellent Rochester LGBT film festival. It doesn't yet have enough ratings to be meaningful. I really liked it, and rated it 9.

I'm overwhelmed by the gritty and witty beauty of this film. Moon Manor takes a hard and humorous look at dying and, in turn, shares universal lessons about living. The colorful cast of characters, and the brilliant portrayal of the death doula by Debra Milson, stayed with me long after the film ended. An instant cult classic.

James 'Jimmy' Carrozo might have started his film career later than others, but he reminds me of Willem Dafoe but I am so glad he took on the role instead. I hope to see him in more soon too.

Info-10396 provided a great review as well, so take time to read it.

Produced by Machete Bang Bang and edited as well.

The Directors, Machete Bang Bang and Erin Granatwho also wrote the story did a great job and the cinematography, by Jacob Bojsza, music, special effects, Artwork and more are all first class.

I am tempted to list all of the cast but I don't want to play favorites there. Everyone brought something to the table to make it a better film.

Well worth seeing. Even if you are young now just to give you something to think about later.
