A Competently made, well acted little Pic!!

Nightowls of Coventry, has a light hearted charm that allows it to flow smoothly through it's tight 75 minutes. A cast of veteran character actors with a long list of television and film credits between them helps the film's banter keep moving at full speed. While the film certainly has it's flaws , it is an easy, delightful way to spend time at the movies. The best element of the film is it's overall look, ably helped by acclaimed rising star cinematographer Caroline Constantine from Australia, who has most notably shot award winning shorts for another rising star filmmaker Carla Drago. Overall this is a delightful fluid first feature that will appeal to a wide base audience but will certainly be a hit with the Jewish film audiences!!

Great Movie

This movie was recommended by a coworker. He said that I would definitely enjoy this movie. He said that me being Jewish , that I would appreciate the humor that went along with this movie. He was so right. I truly appreciate the Yiddish and the humor. I went with two coworkers and had to laugh when they just sat there. I am newer to the Indy movie scene. So this was really a first time for me to go to the movies to see a movie that was locally made. I liked seeing some of the stores and such that I have frequented. It was very interesting to see what the shops may have looked like back in that time. I give a two thumbs up to the person that thought of this movie and put it all together. Great job.
