"Brother"


"Brother" (short), 2000. Childhood recollections of the narrator's brother. Written & directed by Adam Elliot. Starring William McInnes.

Concept: 3/4 (Good)
Story: 2/4 (Indifferent). Not that kind of movie.
Characters: 3/4 (Good)
Dialog: 4/4 (Great)
Pacing: 4/4 (Great)
Cinematography: 4/4 (Great)
Special effects/design: 4/4 (Great)
Acting: 3/4 (Good)
Music: 3/4 (Good) No music.
Subjective Rating: 9/10 (One of my favorites, 4/4 5/4). Absurd humor side by side with sincere autobiography, with a dry, pensive tone that makes it hard to tell which is which.
Objective Rating (Average): 3.4/4 3.5/4 (Very good)
