I'm a fan of short films, any they're a stepping stone for new filmmaker, and are usually just OK as such.
UK writer and director David Mahmoudieh isn't exactly a newb filmmaker, but also only has experience in short films. And this one is one of the best I've seen, and here's why:
The title - tell me that doesn't engage anyone's curiosity with a smirk. I was disappointed there was no trailer attached, so a quick Google search led me to a hilarious and stellar YouTube teaser Trump impersonator.
Now I'm laughing and really curious. Oddly enough, YouTube also had the actual short film on the LA SHORTS channel, and at only 8 min long, I watched it
Start to finish, absolutely brilliant and stellar! Directing: 10/10. Originality/story: 10/10. Cinematography: 10/10. Sound: 10/10. Casting and performances: 10/10. Set/props/FX: 10/10.
Please, PLEASE make this a TV series! It's a perfect and well deserving 10/10 from me. To read more of my 1000+ ratings and reviews, simply click on my username. But first watch the teaser and this short film!
