I understand this is an exercise for younger actors who are trying to get better, but damn - that's a classic scene from a classic actor you just ran into the ground.

Everything's off. Directing is choppy, and the acting is horrendous. It's kind of dreary.

Bill and Katherine are awful actors.

Dave is passable. The directing is a bit off, but good effort. Cam shots from 1:22 to 1:26 were especially gruesome.

The director really needed to instruct these guys on what they needed to be doing... well, better than he did I mean. Again, good effort though!
