Intruder in the Dust (1949)
thanks!
hello there; i would just like to say how much i enjoyed your review and comments about that excellent film 'intruder in the dust'. i believe that the points you made were insightful, intelligent and totally valid. it's also a shame that this film is hardly ever shown on TV these days and that it isn't available on DVD region 2 - i live in england. once again, many thanks for your review. the actor juano hernandez was in another brilliant film, 'young man with a horn', which also starred kirk douglas and lauren bacall. that was a very evocative and stylish film with some superb music. i wish that someone with influence could release the entire back catalogues of films like 'johnny belinda', 'i remember mama', and 'the yearling' on DVD region 2, we love these movies in great Britain. i'm not of pensionable age, i'm still reasonably young and my family and i love classic films!!films like these were so beautifully made and they bring back wonderful memories. anyway...! many thanks for your comments!
The Confession (2005)
Astonishing and Memorable
This is an unusual and thought-provoking short film. A pretty young woman is at a prison, presumably to visit her husband/boyfriend/lover on a conjugal visit. We see her getting changed into a nice dress, with her fantasies of seeing her man. She goes through the indignity of a body search, is sat in a cell, and she waits.... This is an astonishing and memorable piece of film; the young woman is played by an actress called Josie Maran, and shows her love for her man, despite her own vulnerability. The prisoner/husband is played by Wentworth Miller, newly famous from TV's Prison Break, and let's just say that he shows himself in a very different light. A very well made short film from 2005, don't miss it
