Dominant Seventh (1999)
The best short film that I've seen!
5 February 2002 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
Saw this film by accident at the Laemmle Sunset Theater in Hollywood. My expectations for short films? Usually very low because they are typically snap shots of life or a one-gag joke. However, this director took on the brave task of acutally telling a story with depth and great sensitivity in a classical style.
A young child prodigy violinist (played by a remarkable, young actor named Pappone)struggles for his father's attention. Meanwhile the drunken father has no appreciation for his son let alone his amazing musical talent. Nowak does a terrific job directing all his actors, not to mention the writing and editing, as the performances are as good as any I've seen come from this town.
Give yourself a treat and watch this mini gem!
