All Mistakes Buried (2015)
An hopeless self destruction story with a wonderful leading actor
With great skill Tim McCann - together with Alan McIntyre Smith great cinematography-builds a tense movie, full of flashbacks,perfectly following lead character Sonny's incoherent mind while he searches for an impossible redemption. Every framing highlights his loneliness and his vulnerability in front of a reality he refuses to accept enough to annihilate himself into it.A group of extraordinarily true characters and a terribly seedy environment surround an exceptional Sam Trammell,able to raise both anger and empathy towards a man that instead of really living chooses to run after his ghosts, even if there's no hope awaiting for him at the end of his road. After "White Rabbit", another little jewel by the same team.
White Rabbit (2013)
Distressing and powerful
The story of a terribly introverted boy who lives mostly in his head,since reality is too hard for him. He has really too few things that made his life barely acceptable, and he loses them one after the other. He is left with his distressing memories and his loneliness; his only escape valve- his comics- are taken away from him by a a father that try too late to regain his parental function. The settings perfectly highlight Harlon's life and falling into desolation. Especially great scenes were shot at the abandoned warehouse: a rusty, run-down and deserted place where Harlon in some way can be himself and can be together with his newborn love. To be watched.
