Laura Hasn't Slept

Watched Smile some time ago, but was curious to check out the short it was based on. Quite honestly, I kinda liked this more than the feature.

The production design was really immersive and it had a really good use of sound to build tension. The actress was quite good as well and I was glad they put her in the feature too. It felt a bit longer than it was, probably due to being drawn in so quickly.

I can totally see why Paramount scooped up this short, as it was pretty original. I wish the feature was more about the roots of this short, rather than running off to do its own thing. One of the best short films I've seen.
