Little Bird

A powerful piece which encapsulates the yearnings of a young woman trying to do her bit for the war effort. The movie is so short, if I say much of anything I am giving away the whole story. It does remind me of the Hemingway short story, "for sale: One pair of baby shoes. Never worn." Let me just say the main performer is also the writer and she is positively mesmerizing. I am going to investigate her further, both for acting and writing. She has a real gift. The other element that captured me was the haunting music playing while the credits rolled. It made my heat break, just a little.

This review is almost longer than the movie. I wish the movie was longer and my review could be shorter.
