Burnt Toast and Cigarettes (2022) User Reviews

Great short film

[MagicalMissJ · 9/10 · 22 December 2022]

A very strong follow up to Floppy Toast with Drippy Butter, the previous film from this creative team that I very much enjoyed. This new film gives us a view of the back story and home life of the "villain" from Floppy Toast and allows us to see that things are not always as they seem and emotions are never as simple as black and white. This is a well acted and well written story with a powerful message and is well worth a watch. The film is also beautifully shot with the dance scene in particular being stunning to look at.

I look forward to seeing where these characters go next and more from the writer and director.

angry

[Kirpianuscus · 20 December 2022]

Angry, frustrations, jealousy, life in derive , fails, lost, loneliness.

This short film offeres the precise portrait of their fundamental traits. In simple and precise manner, offering familiar reactions , defining relations and the look for stability.

And it does it very well, not ignoring details and lost and fury in its pure forms.

In short, a beautiful film. Seductive for the inspired - honest way to reflect a profound crisis parts . Powerful, simple, touching and heavy. Because , more than portrait of a character, it is fair definition of a state.

And this makes it just special . As warning. As confession. Maybe, as clear definition or encouragement in middle of vicious circle.
