Claret (2010)

High (Unexpected) Production Value

Wow! It's amazing what can be done with almost no money and a lot of heart. All the actors were believable. Lighting was excellent. Script was entertaining. And the directing was flawless. Well done! No wonder this short film was the Audience Choice at the Young Cuts film festival. Kudos to cast and crew, and especially to Director, Izzy Traub. I especially liked the sound design which has a real cinematic flavor to it. The story line is comparable to a few other films which immediately came to mind, but had enough unique twists and turns that it felt new. Especially the ending! I won't spoil it here, and for those who are wondering, it has nothing to do with sex, drugs or money.
