The drain is a metaphor for Lenny and Gene. Like water through a drain, they pass, unnoticed through society and are eventually discarded. Lenny acts without thinking, much like water through a channel. Gene begins to change, disrupting the flow.
We figured that, after a double-homicide, the police would be watching near bye hospitals for questionable people. Hospitals would ask a lot of questions when a gunshot wound is present as well.
Well, that was unexpected. The Mice and Men Thing didn't work though, afterall Lenny was a murder too. Your stock went way up with this one. GREAT JOB !!!!!
We used the name Lenny to throw people off, hoping the audience would think Of Mice and Men and feel sympathy for the character before finding out the crimes he had committed earlier.
Great Job!

What's the story with them being homeless in the first place? Or are they just hoods?
Seems pretty stupid for Gene to make Lenny walk, wouldn't someone like Gene want Lenny to rest in an alley or someplace?

Haha wow I'm stupid.
Any way, you guys make some quality films. Keep it up!
brandonplaysguitar16 3 years ago
Yup
Downtown Phoenix is a dusty hell hole. Shitty place to be homeless.
I noticed the two characters crossed the light rail on their way to the pawn shop. It's nice to see independent films produced here.

Reminds me of "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinback.
Really similar.
I mean "Lenny"?
Haha, must be where they got the inspiration.

Luckily enough, I not well read enough to have caught that, but I enjoyed it anyway.
some how, I did feel sympathy for Lenny in the beginning seeing as he was obviously hurting.
