Following up on my previous text about having this and other shorts included in my tv show, Sprockets and Splices / w w w sprockets and splices dot com. We are beginning to assemble short films for Season 4.
acting at least wasnt terrible. story is boring and kind of plain. "wife gets beaten. she is sad. the end" is what i would expect the screenplay to say. it also seems like you tried too hard and kinda force fed us some overly obvious and unneeded symbolism.
This is awesome, thanks for sharing, I like how long some of the shots were like when she was staring blank faced, it made the piece really intense and got the message across. Fab acting from the girl and it was even more powerful that we didn't really get to see the man's face! Excellent work!
@Sol88K Oh my gosh, that is sooo easier SAID than done. Some woman find it very hard to get out of these sorts of relationships. You have no idea how over possessive and weak some men can make women feel. It's a very tricky situation to be in.
@Sol88K My estimation of this "masterpiece"?......That's it?! When the hell is she going to stab the bastard with her fork?! What the hell is she waiting for?!!
@Sol88K Are you talking about me? I am not....I live alone and would never let a guy do thos to me but many women have no options... they are scared and alone..have no place to go. I personally would kick this jerk where it really hurts but we are all different...these women are so isolated they have no friends and no help.
The symbolism used to create tension was good: Simple meal, light on or lacking meat on a ceramic plate/Ceramic plate scrapes across hardwood table. Pastel environment with hard straight edges/ Washer and Dryer in the same room, behind the man/ The abuser is dressed neatly whle the abused is in old ill-fitting clothes. Other than that, this was crap. WKUK's "Pizza Bagel" skit is more effective, shorter, and funny as well as disturbing.
Acting, makeup were good but the overall look and feeling of the production just didn't break through.
... maybe, if this was a commercial or clip against "husband-violence" it would be okay... but as a short movie? why would she even dare staring at him if he just beat her up? The reflection of him in the microwave is a good Idea but it just looks as if he shouts at a dog or something.
Audio was terrible: all the way through the movie there was an annoying high-pitched sound.
BRAVO!!!

@Sol88K It's not so easy to get out sometimes, often these violent abusive men don;t let their wives work...
where would she go? End up on the street? Where would she get the money for the lawyer? This jerk probably makes her account for every penny...

Is this really a mirror of reality ?
My boyfriend would NEVER EVER say : "it`s cold", because he knows very well I would answer : " ... well, then stand up and make it hot".
