1/1

I know Judd Nelson has had his ups and downs over the decades, but I love him in New Jack City and The Breakfast Club. I watched this indy film on Amazon Prime because of Nelson and much to my surprise I honestly think this in one of his all time best performances. He's not in it much but he brings such a strength and gravity to the role. No joke. Seriously watch him in this movie, it's incredibly impressive what he does with a mostly silent part (it's not a silent movie, the character is a deeply troubled man of few words). It'd be great to see his talents shine in more movies like this. Cast him!

This is a filmmaking masterpiece, shows how you dont need a big budget and a lot of actors to make a great movie. It is so well executed. I loved the usage of text in transitioning the storyline and also the close up shots, which make a great point.

Lindsey Shaw rules. Liars rule. Judd Nelson rules. Dendrie Taylor rules. 1/1 has many strengths. It's a slow burn, so hang in there during the first 30 minutes. Actually, that was my favorite part, but my wife was like "nahhhhh." But then she loved the rest. Funny enough, overall, she likes 1/1 more than me. I don't get the title. Whatever.

I like weird stuff. Give me some Lynch, Noe or Jodorowsky and I'm a happy camper. This isn't quite as surreal (or as good) as those masters. It's a descent into drugs and meaningless sex. It's well made. Performances are terrific - Judd Nelson can proudly throw his fist in the air for this one! Better than Beastmaster.

1/1 has a good message about family and love and forgiveness. I mean, it's an odd movie and if the story were told simpler, it would be more effective. Any yet, in the end, I was touched.
