This film is what independent film making is all about; going back to the original way films were made, be it in Europe or in the U.S., where some of the best roles are also played by people who have probably never acted before in their life. Michael Patrick Nicholson and Chelsea Lopez both have standout performances, nomination worthy among the heavy hitters.
Though I'm sure Xander Robin (the director) and his fellow crew members had their obstacles in this his first feature film, it is an accomplishment of which they should all be immensely proud. I enjoyed a new (yet nostalgic) direction for film, in an exciting, artistic, playfully revolting masterpiece.
If you haven't seen Are We Not Cats yet, go find a way to get it! It will sicken you how much you'll love it.
