A rare amateur film that was impressively filmed, good acting, angles, lighting, sound. Excellent job.I'd love to see more of your work.

[browkate]

Impressive, Jason. I really hope you get the chance to keep working on this!

Nice film, but I think that the beginning is a little over dramatized. I don't think it was necessary for the waitress to talk so much to the detective--you could have cut that part out. And as for the detective, i don't think it was entirely necessary either for the detective to read aloud what was on the paper (You could have simply shown the document close up, with the most important words such as "suicide" in focus) Besides that, excellent independent film! Make more!! :)
