Yes, this film has Robert DeNiro's son Julian in it, but thirty seconds into the film you'll have forgotten that and be lost in the film.
Genuinely one one of the best films at Tribeca concerns two young men with a past who spend an afternoon together talking, smoking and listening to a box of old cassette tapes of answering machine messages.
I have no notes. Elena Parasco has made a hell of a calling card. Filled with emotion that most of the 50 previous films I've seen for Tribeca have not had this is a short film that is a full meal. These few minutes say more about the human condition than most features. I was floored. Parasco needs to be turned loose on a feature.
And how is the younger DeNiro? Excellent. He is his own man and as I said at the top you'll forget his famous parentage.
Highly recommended.
