Featured reviews
Nothing To Do is a terrific film , full of twists and turns, suspense and humor. The awesome cast of really terrific actors, Paul Fahrenkopf and Connie Bowman, as son Kenny and daughter Rachel, Philip Lawton as Irv the father, Patricia Talmadge as building owner where Irv enters hospice in his own apartment and Kenny's developing love interest, are all superb. I watched the movie several times and found the film incredibly moving and realistic. Based loosely on Director Mike Kravinsky's own father son relationship prior to his father's passing at 100 years old.
Well done end of life drama told with compassion and wit. Paul Fahrekopf does an excellent job portraying the son of a dying man
This film does a fantastic job of representing the real world and the problem of aging parents that many of us face and will have to face. Several of our attendees at the Beaufort International Film Festival could identify with this situation because they are currently experiencing it. Those same attendees said it was their favorite screening! The sibling rivalry is apparent in the film and examples are touched on, but does not overshadow the real issue at hand. The seriousness of the film, with a bit of humor thrown in, make a desolate situation seem better and kept the script moving at a good pace. The brother, Kenny (Paul Fahrenkopf), and the sister, Rachel (Connie Bowman), did an outstanding job of allowing the audience to identify with each one regardless of your position or opinion on the subject. Wishing this film much success on the film festival circuit and beyond! Thank you for screening @bftfilmfest.
I tuned in to this on Amazon not sure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised to find a very good film, one that I had heard nothings out, with actors and director totally new to me.
I really enjoyed this film. The ending is so surprising and so right.It added that last touch to make this film memorable.
Heart warming.

The feature film Nothing to Do directed by Mike Kravinsky (nominated for Best Director) screened at the recent Beaufort International Film Festival with an audience of nearly 300. The film resonated with many who have had similar experiences dealing with aging parents. The story is well crafted with strong performances by the great ensemble cast. The performance by Paul Fahrenkopf was a standout and resulted in a Best Actor nomination. Mike Kravinsky's even handed direction kept the story moving with anxious anticipation. I highly recommend this film.
