Review :
An urban black, quirk, comedy-- Images still return months after viewing.
A quirky piece with something to say. Funny -- there's some fine comic, character work -- up to a point, at which point it gets disturbing.
Director and writer, Cato, uses the occasion of New York's Thanksgiving Day Parade as a vehicle to build suspense and to introduce an array of urban characters who live on the fringe. His heroine is a naive, attractive, socialite looking to make something out of her frivolous past. When she stumbles into a situation that may bring meaning to her life, she gets much more than she bargained for. Cato and his fine cast and crew are after more than laughs, their controlled tracking of innocence seduced in a worthy cause ends in a nightmarish vision.
So I guess "black comedy" is the best way to classify this fine piece of independent film making that captures the pace and rhythms of life in the Big Apple. Images still return months after viewing.
