The Dinner Guest

[costernocht]

I can't believe this is 'just' a student film. There's nothing I don't love about it.

This makes me want to smoke a cigarette, simply because that would be a nice thing to do, like setting out flowers, or listening to music.

Or making a very good film short. Lovely, lovely work.

Mmmm...I love all of the small preparations--the setting of the table, the brushing of the hair--that add to the expectation.

operatic soundtracks are my weakpoint, but besides that, you certainly know how to craft an unnerving scenario. bravo, monsieur. i thorougly enjoyed it.

This is awesome, Joe. Looking forward to seeing more of your films. Keep up the spectacular work!

What a nice story, what a warm & loving faimly

I'm sure Dad is missed very much.

Wow! Loved it! Loved it! Loved it! The outdoor shots are gorgeous and add so much more interest to the story. Fabulous work, Joe, and all!

Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Joe Wright would be jealous of you and your set. The placement of the camera and scene transitions are just perfect.

Like, OMG, you should like, put this in Sundance or the Oscars or something. I <3 it!!!!

[beccafeeks]

Wow, you couldn't ask for a better place to film. Beautiful exterior shots!!! I was wary of the fact that showing shots of the guest might rob the film of its tension, but it enriched the film so much more. Brilliant editing, Joe.
