A wonderful neo-noir short

Caught this flick over at IFilm.com. Beautiful lighting, a fitting score, and a well-developed script (surprising for a film which runs under 30 minutes). Stephen Jefferys is perfect as our protagonist and narrator. The recurring motifs (the clocks, the man ascending the stairs, the planes) throughout give the short a sense of cohesion. I don't want to reveal too much of the plot as part of the fun is discovering the mystery as it unfolds. But it does feature one of my favorite themes: the absence of goodness in a world desperate for heroes.

Congrats to Jim Cliffe and all the crew who worked on this project, the final product is a joy to watch.

Thought-provoking and profound

Subtle subtext and symbolism add an element of depth demanding the audience's attention to detail. Watch closely and listen carefully for there is always more than what meets the eye. Every frame of action and each phrase of dialog has a meaningful purpose, pushing the movie forward, fitting the pieces of the puzzle together.

What helps to make the movie so interesting is how each viewer will interpret their own handful of clues. Much like the Sixth Sense, most viewers will not connect all the undertones that tie the film together until they've seen it twice. Insight into the memories that consume the mind of Stephen Jefferys unfold throughout the film until he reveals the surprising truth at the end. This short was meant to be a feature length film.
