The Little Things

This short film was among others on a DVD "American Breakdown." It was the last short film but the best in the bunch. It is about a young woman who tried to commit suicide. She is unhappy with her life and job. When she meets a young man who tried to kill himself by accident, they bonded over mutual interests. The short film does what a short should do in telling a simple story with focus on two people. The film shows what a short could in telling a story without overdoing it. It is a very realistic film and worth watching. Ioan Gruffudd plays the young man and does a good job in it. Of all the short films on the DVD, this was my favorite in telling a simple story effectively.
