Chicago – I first encountered Marcellus Cox in association with his stunning debut feature film “Mickey Hardaway,” a treatise on mental health and the black community. Continuing this theme in his latest short film … now on the film festival circuit … is “Liquor Bank,” a momentary black splash into alcoholism.

Rating: 4.0/5.0

Eddie (Antwone Barnes) wakes up with his usual hangover, and heads for his hidden bottle. A knock on the door brings his AA sponsor Baker (Sean Alexander James), wondering why he’d missed his meeting. What follows is a give-and-take regarding Eddie’s problems in association with his drinking, which escalates into a potential violent confrontation. As he reaches the lowest point in his life, can Eddie make the right choices?
