The Stew

There was a lot of hype about this short heading in so I was curious how it would play out. There is some Wes Anderson feel to the style in terms of the visuals and production. It was one of the funnier films screened and Carlos Veldes is a terrific comedic actor. It's a lot packed into a short and used the passive aggressive and limited dialogue to its advantage at times. It was a good short and meet expectations I had. My only criticism of the film is that it's clear the director is trying to find his own footing and style and didn't really have a solid idea of who he wants to be as his own director. The inexperience was there but it didn't hinder too bad so I'm curious and open to see what else he produces in the future. Funny overall but some weak moments. Not a repeat watch for me but enjoyable all the same.
