Pretty Boy (2015) Reviews
Haunting drama, incredible performances
If this had not been a film short, and was a feature length motion picture, it would have swept the 2018 Oscars! Outstanding performances by the two lead actors. Rebekah Tripp gave the best performance by an actress in a lead role last year. The best acting this reviewer has seen in a very long time. She is riveting and natural. Frankly, she makes the movie. Rebekah, if you are reading this review, congratulations. You should go very far. Note to Casting Directors and agents: Rebekah should be on your short list.
Superbly intense!
I saw this short at the Pensacola LGBT Film Festival not long after it was released last year, and walked away so very happy I invested the time to see it. Quite the different coming-of-age story, this film tackles a diverse number of subjects including bullying, questioning one's own sexuality, extreme fundamentalism, a clueless father, and the rarely seen portrayed "helpful and intelligent prostitute." Brilliantly written and just as brilliantly acted, you will have moments where you cringe, ones where you cheer, ones where you want to hug the poor kid, and ones where you might even shed a tear. One thing for sure is you will want to watch it again. To quote the old "Men on Film" guys from "In Living Color" ... I'd give it 'An around the world and two snaps up'" rating. I think you will too.
The best LGBT short ever!
