The Melancholy of Socks (2009)
Project or professional film?
This film, when regarded as the work of high school students, is fairly fun to watch in the sense of seeing how they constructed the set,characters and plot. However, when regarded as the product of a professional film company expectations fall extremely short. Though knowing that this company at the time had a budget of essentially nothing gives some explanation as to why the film is the way it is. Some of the characters are slightly interesting, but they are not explored or used to an extent that gives them value to the plot. The plot itself ends rather abruptly without explaining several elements to the story. Also, if I recall correctly, the length to the film was in the ballpark of 20 minutes. I understand that the length may have been a limitation, but there is no excuse for a plot and script without imagination or purpose. In short, this was not a project worthy of attaching to the name of a professional company.
