A lonely man's night out on the town
pscamp0124 April 2019
If this isn't a student film then it is its next door neighbor. There is no plot to speak--just a string of incidents. A lonely man named John is wandering around and ends up hanging around a gas station with the slightly crazy attendant. That's it. The movie was obviously made on a budget of a dollar and a song. The sound is horrible and the camera keeps shaking. Still, the movie has a certain charm and there are a couple laughs near the end. It's not great, but it's agreeable enough and it's interesting to see how the Safdie brothers started their career.
