The B&W element is the real gem here. It has a more than passing resemblance to "Sin City", and I can see the love for that film here. I would try to really go more with your own voice for future films. It's quite obvious you know how to put a film together.
for the first minute or two, i wasn't really buying it, mainly because i tend to go into any independent noir with expectations as low as a roach, but the moment when all the color drained out and it went b&w, gave me chills. well done.
I actually wrote it before I knew of Sin City, but it was Robert Rodriguez's commentaries on the DVD that inspired me to actually go out there and make it. I've always been a fan of film noir and classical Hollywood movies in general. This was my attempt to add some modern sensibilities.
I'm thinking about putting "Above the Belt" on here. I might redo some of the audio first. Not to mention that it is over ten minutes which is the YouTube limit. I'll have to edit it down.

Wow that was badass. Plus the main actor sorta looks like me. Quite handsome, he is :)
What I don't understand is, what did all those people have against him? Is it cuz he's black???
Watch for MY upcoming film, Obscurus Intus... gonna be dark (but not "noir"). We start shooting in late July.

Very interesting, and quite a twist. This short haunts you hours after the viewing, and leaves you with one question. Why???
