John Truth (2015) - Surreal Short Film

Wow guys, this was damn good. I'm surprised at just how well you pulled off certain things in this film. There were a lot of exaggerated looks and shots that could have been cheesy if not done right, but it was all executed in such a way that kept within the tone of the film and elevated the experience. It felt a lot like a David Lynch film, specifically Eraserhead, but yet still very much your own. It left a lot to interpret but also had an underlying story that was easy enough to follow that you still get something out of it upon first viewing. Also an amazing performance by your lead, and fantastic cinematography. This film will sit with me for a while and I'll enjoy interpreting it my own way. Phenomenal job on pulling off something this experimental!

+AllBut1Productions Thank you very much, mates! I'm really amazed by your comment and I'm very happy you took the time to see our film. It was in development for a long time. A friend came up with the idea around 2011 and we planned to have it out by 2012. But, a bunch of complications appeared. Which led to me postponing the film. We didn't have enough actors to help us. A few years go by and I saw some of David Lynch's work. Funny that you mentioned him. :) I thought it was just the right inspiration for the tone I was going for. By now, we actually had some friend actors who were willing to help and we were finally able to make it. I tried to create a different film than what we usually do. I also wanted to experiment with new things. I like to vary in the films and styles I make. It makes it feel more fresh when you come back to a similar style after having tried some others. Thanks again. Your comment made my day a little brighter. I shall definitely tell Pel (who played Truth) and the rest of the crew. By the way, it's an honor for us that you saw it, since we really liked your work with "YOLO! The Movie". That film inspired us to make something that could be so funny yet so sentimental. The whole film had us focused and interested the entire time, it never slowed down. So, I just have to congratulate you again.
