    Wow! Great Stuff! This should grow into something big

    A short ahhh, but great film set in a moody interrogation room. This little gem pulls you right into the emotion and conflict. There is a sense of naughty and even though Theresa is the suspect, I found myself wondering how a cute girl like her could find herself in this position.

    All the while this beauty was progressing, I had to keep myself from getting very angry at the protagonist. This is one that is edgy, raw and full of tension.

    Dana Benningfield is not only believable but her talent is crystal clear as she artfully maneuvers her way into and around her character. Dan Lauria is exceptional and his talent speaks for itself. I hate to say it, Dan; but I hated Detective O'Neil! Excellent! Det. Fuselli, played by Philip Lynch seemed to be an inexperienced officer and one that Theresa could easily get the best of. Mr. Lynch gave a gritty gutsy performance. Watch out for flying feet.

    I would recommend BUST to anyone who likes to be entertained. Bravo!!
