...Around (2008)

Posted on 08:38 by john cena

Recommended
USA
Feature Film
Writer/Director: David Spaltro
Cinematographer: David A. Barkan
Composer: Vita Tanga
Cast: Rob Evans, Molly Ryman, Marcel Torres, Berenice Mosca, Ron Brice, Veronica Heffron, David Joseph Boyd, Erin Sullivan, Ali Tobia, Amy Hoerler, Julie Tran

Spaltro’s ultra-low budget, self-financed, quickly shot debut, a semi-autobiographical tale of a young film student’s failure to make ends meet in New York City, where he end up living on the streets, is, particularly in the light-hearted and breathlessly paced first couple of acts, rather rough and ready, but as the film progresses and the pace slackens and the tone becomes more dramatic, allowing the complicated characters more room to breathe, the film ends up, thanks in no small part to Evans’s wholehearted performance, becoming a thoroughly rewarding and really rather moving experience.
