Between (2005)
what a thriller
This movie kept my attention from start to finish. It was like putting together pieces of a really big puzzle. You know how some pieces look like they fit but they really don't so you have to set them aside for later? Well that's how this movie was. I didn't want to miss anything because every moment was a clue. You don't realize it until the movie is over so you want to go back and see it again and again. The actors did an excellent job with their performances. I also really liked the way the film was shot. The slow, staggered camera moves helped to intensify the suspense of this movie. Using Tijuana as a backdrop was also a clever choice by the director. The colors, the movement, the characters and drama of Tijuana were incredible. The title "Between" was also a perfect choice because as a viewer I wanted to know what it really meant. You are led to believe it is one thing and then something else and something else again. You don't really get a fully, clear meaning until all is said and done. I loved it!
True Love (2003)
Compact romance
I have never seen nor felt romance like the way it was delivered by these actors. You could actually feel it coming off the screen. How they were able to deliver such an impact in such a short period of time blows my mind. The writing was done so superbly and succinctly. The female character could not speak English and the male character could not speak her foreign language but thru an interpreter they found love. The way these actors used facial expressions to convey emotions was priceless. I was fortunate enough to be at the first screening which was packed. Afterwards I found it interesting that so many men commented on how well the male actor conveyed his emotions on screen and how they felt it. There was one comment after another after another. Being a female and hearing men comment like this moved me. Find a way to see this short. You don't want to miss out on this one!
