Last Call

This film won't take you very long to see, but it will leave a lasting impression. It's bright, witty, and reflective of the realities of today's society with an edginess and sophistication that tells you you're in the hands of a master filmmaker.

The actors are fabulous and the script is sharp and witty. The ending is unforgettable. I loved all the little lines and nuances that made it worth watching twice. It's a compact piece that looks like it was fun to shoot and yet has all the impact of a much larger project. I particularly liked the colorful costumes and the way they brought the innovative set to life. I thought the actors were amazing and had the pleasure of meeting several of them at the screening.

I can't wait to see this writer/director's next story.

I loved the film ,dynamic and haunting, it managed to keep me gripped and perplexed until its wonderful, unexpected and tender climax.The final look ,which without saying a single word managed to say everything, really moved me. At no matter what age we may meet, our bodies and minds are home to all kinds of desires and fantasies. Physical decay may reduce our movements, but not our anxieties ,dreams and fantasies. Like how a single look can hold so much desire and happiness, defeating the passing of time and reminding us that elderly people with their decaying bodies,are still dealing with the most intense human passions in their minds. Brilliant ,deeply thoughtful and a cry of hope. A beautiful film ,wonderfully sensitive. Thank you.!

I had the opportunity to see this and meet the director at the New Orleans Film Festival. Of all the movies shown which ranged from documentary, sci-fi, drama, romance and comedy this one really stood out for me. The style and cinematography were incredible. The story is witty and will make you rethink your views of the social scene and even love. It is the stories great concept that really challenged me to look at things differently. I won't give away any of the story. It's something you just have to experience to fully appreciate the work and talent put into this. David Drach brings a unique and interesting flavor that has been void in many movies today back to the big screen. I can't wait to see what's next for David Drach.

David Drach beautifully captures the essence of what it means to grow old and grow weary from knowing the body is failing the youthful spirit. The "gang" of older folks in Last Call represent all of us, regardless of age, in our fears, our desires and our needs.

Mind over matter is what Last Call prompts in me, and I for one look at people around me, young and old, with the knowledge that we are all human beings, equal and the same, and yet fiercely individual. Common for us all is that we deserve respect, despite our inevitable demise. This short film makes this abundantly clear.

Last Call inspires thought and provokes emotions and will stay with you for years to come.
