After touring a movie studio it only seems right that I create another movie review.
Editor, director and photographer, Shawn Christensen produced a short film titled brink, which was a production of Fuzzy Logic Pictures. The film was one of the top movies on display at the Tribeca Film Festival. The short films portreys a man in his early to mid 20's who has fallen in love with his best friend. He writes her a note professing his love and drops it in her mail box. As he awaits her replay we realize that the earth is losing gravity and every one soon will perish. There are short clips of film one entails african american men playing basketball and the ball is simply hovering over the ground. I feel that this symbolizes their life hanging in the balance and the final loss of gravity will be their end. I also feel that there is another message intertwined in this short story, which symbolizes how love can defy gravity. At the very end, the man and his best friend meet on a roof and she professes her love back to him, they kiss for the first time. Then after they decide that they never want to leave each others side (all in non-verbal communication) they tie their legs together in hopes that it will eternally bond them, gravity or no gravity.
