Around June (2008)
Wonderfully sensitive film
I thoroughly enjoyed screening this tender film last night and thought a couple words of praise were in order. Director, James Savoca and crew did a bang up job capturing the pathos and angst of June's dysfunctional family. Great performances from ensemble cast, starring Samaire Armstrong, Brad William Henke, Oscar Guerrero. Special hats off to Jon Gries for digging deeper and creating an amazing emotionally scarred, war torn "Murry". Considering this is the second release from Fog City Films in two years, and the film was a co-venture between seasoned professionals and students working side by side.....the resulting work is quite admirable. I believe this is the first of it's kind in the USA where students and seasoned pros work side by side in all phases of the project! Shot in digital with a film look and lovely animation sprinkled through the imaginative titles and production. Congratulations, job well done!
