Round

Having seen Justin Edgar's previous movies (Large - short, Dirty Phone Calls and Large - feature) I was expecting an empty headed teen comedy. I was very surprised to find that Round is in complete contrast to his earlier work. It is a mature and poignant film about inadequacy and unrequited love. The central performances are wonderful and enhanced by an excellent supporting cast. Mark Burgess' editing is flawless as in Justin's Direction. The cinematography is simple and unobtrusive. It is a beautifully crafted film that leaves you wanting more. I hope that this new more mature version of Justin Edgar gets the opportunity to write and direct another feature film soon. 10 out of 10. The best short I have seen in years.
