I absolutely love this film for its uniqueness, bravery, and the profound journey it offers to cinema and acting enthusiasts. This film stands apart from anything I've seen, inviting us on a wild and wacky journey that, if embraced, becomes a deeply rewarding experience. Its layers of complexity are both profound and captivating.

The film's narrative centers around Luca, a method actor in Athens with a burning passion and an undying dream to study Method Acting in New York. Faced with the challenge of funding his American dream, Luca, alongside his brother, daringly plots a heist. However, their plan spirals out of control when Luca accidentally shoots a passerby named Ilias. The plot thickens as Luca, ridden with guilt, visits Ilias in the trauma ward and forges a friendship, all while concealing his true identity. This unexpected bond between two starkly different individuals weaves an intricate and compelling story that unfolds-or rather, interlaces-before our eyes.

Antonis Tsonis, the Writer-Director, masterfully delves into the psychology and techniques of a method actor, offering a rare glimpse behind the curtains of this intense acting form. His direction brings to life the unseen intricacies of an actor's world, leaving the audience on the edge of their seats with anticipation.

I had the pleasure of experiencing this visually stunning masterpiece at the Slamdance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. The big screen truly did justice to the film's aesthetic beauty and artistic composition.

Brando with a glass eye is not just a film; it's an exploration of the depths of acting and the human psyche. It's a must-see for anyone who appreciates the art of cinema, the complexity of character development, and the beauty of an unexpected friendship.
