Three SXSW 2024 Shorts- CAN, MAKE ME A PIZZA and MY IDEA


CAN
Filmmaker Kailee McGee examines her life after being diagnosed with stage IV Breast caner.

This is a life affirming meta examination of illness, survival, life and the ability of the movies to make everything go however you want it to. It’s a film filled with emotion that works you over before gently putting you down on the side of the road with a tear in your eye.

This is wonderful

Recommended.


MAKE ME A PIZZA
A woman orders a pizza and pays for it via sex.

Absurdist send up of the 1970’s porn trope (which was a trope going back decades in stag reels) shot in the style of a 1970’s porn film.  This is an amusing little film thattakes a turn or two into the bizarre but never outstays it’s welcome. What can I say, it made me laugh.

Worth a look.


MY IDEA
I dislike  reviewing music videos. Too often there isn’t enough to really discuss.  Such is the case with MY IDEA a video from the group Yacht. The music is good, but I don’t really care much about for the story of a guy in a motion capture suit wandering around.
