    a fine sermon against the evils of drugs, and... a girl for once is on top.

    A well-done film, the actors were believable for the most part although the main white antagonist overacted here and there, the cinematography solid usually, with parallel flashback scenes stopping just short of too long, so okay, and the story was interesting. Following is a short summary, revealing no more than that on the back of the DVD, so no worries, relax, I hate having films ruined for me as well. The basic plot revolves around a group of four friends and one of their romantic interests, the Little Red of the title, an ostensibly cute girl (don't expect Meagan Good) and sister of a boss dealer. Due to circumstances, Little Red becomes a drug queenpin, count it, and the three friends not romantically interested become her goons, the three little pigs, with her man the planet to these dirty satellites, their communal decisions resulting of course in a conflict from which change springs.

    The post above is both disconcerting and disappointing, in that it speaks for the common element of the American cinema demographic that will accept only a trite happy ending, (the Departed vs. Infernal Affairs for example) however I say nothing of Little Red's ending, but regardless, film is about freedom of expression, not the fulfillment of formula, however such formulas do tend to exist due to established norms of success, and thus are they really norms, or exhibitive of something else? Either way, the film was good, check it out, in the vein of Boyz n The Hood or Juice but Baltimore based and more independent. Also, on the extra features watch the original short-film (calm down, it's not a bit long like Napoleon Dynamite's, just about the length of a music video) based upon the impetus for the feature, the poem/rap Little Red; the short had a nice style.

    The drug business seen through fairy tale eyes

    "little red" is a film set on the mean streets of Baltimore, Maryland, about drug dealing as seen through the context of the fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood." Brandon Price, in an amazing film debut, plays Darrell, a smart African-American teenager with a bright future if he can avoid the lures of his tough, drug-ridden neighborhood. The toughest lure is his high school sweetheart, Angel, aka "little red," who joins her older brother, played menacingly by Jossan Robinson, in the drug business. Darrell's dilemma grows more complicated when his three best friends, aka "The Three Little Pigs," are recruited by Angel into the gang. The plot thickens when Angel's brother is murdered, and the ensuing power struggle for control of the gang bodes tragedy for all. The film is at its saddest and most insightful when looking into the motivations and actions of the would-be gangsters. On one hand, they plan and commit terrible adult crimes, yet they remain simplistic children at heart, careful not to miss their little league games. "little red" was aggressively written and directed by first timer Clay Valenti and wonderfully shot by Charles Regner. Check it out.
