  Good work, still a bit of a struggle
  A review of Ivory
  by elmerlang on 10/01/2008
  First off, you really need a better compression for web solution. There was hardly a moment when the image wasn’t defaced by pixelation. It is very hard to enjoy a film where any movement creates an unwatchable screen. For me, that turned this film into a radio program where I ignored the visuals and concentrated on the audio. That said, I found I could enjoy it on that level... First off, you really need a better compression for web solution. There was hardly a moment when the image wasn’t defaced by pixelation.

That said, I found I could enjoy it on that level. I think the auteur an intelligent, creative guy looking for a language he can call his own and I respect that. Presently, it’s a bit of a struggle. One problem I have with the originating idea here is what’s so terrible about remembering every moment? A surprising number of people in the world have this ‘condition’, one I know, and he’s very proud of it. It’s not a mental deficit it’s a mental asset. Otherwise, I found this a listenable and intriguing story with some real drama to it, even if that a bit contrived. Good luck. read

  Jesus was my pot dealer
  A review of my friend jesus

  I had a feeling this was going to come out one way (see above headline) and it didn’t. Overall it was pretty well done, not an overly original idea, but it gets put over smartly and doesn’t go on too long to make the idea dull or fatuous. The kids both seemed on top of their characters, the camera work was simple, not bad.

  Good enough
  A review of Ripple
  by elmerlang on 08/16/2008
  This was a pretty well made flick, technically it had all the elements under control, the camera work, editing and sound were pretty good, though the music was a bit heavy handed at times. The actors did a good job with their roles, and though I can’t say the script really captured me, it was a bit predictable and not a subject with much freshness brought to it, the movie was...
