Jack and Anna is among the best short films I've experienced. I used the word 'experienced' because in my mind incredible films pull you in and make you feel the range of emotions that the characters in the film feel as you watch. This is one of those films. Grab a Kleenex, you'll need it.
Thieves Quartet is a very well directed piece, one that is compelling to watch. As someone who truly enjoys jazz music, I really enjoyed how the music was woven into the film. Films like this, that don't (or didn't) have extraordinary advertising $$'s backing it, often get overlooked, but I wouldn't overlook this one.
'Improvisation' is one of my favorite words. When things don't go as planned, what do you do?... Improvise. Something Out of Nothing demonstrates how effective improvisational comedy can be in helping young people constructively work through matters that confront them in their daily lives. It is clearly apparent that each young adult in this documentary benefits immensely from this after-school classroom experience, and you can tell from their joyful expressions that it is a rewarding experience for them, as well. Overall, a classroom experience like this can have an immeasurable effect on young adults, and Something Out of Nothing did a great job of emboldening that message.
