Shorts 5 - Letting Off Steam

Cinequest 2009

Shorts 5 - Letting Off Steam is a series of films with a serious twist or two. There were the weird (Hour of Death) and touching (Water Pills), and one was regrettably pornographic (Love You More). Hollywood continues to enter the Indi world with Winona Ryder in, "Water Pills." She does a great job, but I still look forward to seeing the new, unproven but ready and capable emerging talent that awaits to be discovered.

Side bar: I believe there is more nudity this year than last, and more than the year before. And mostly unnecessary to the story essence, flow, or drama. Most that I’ve seen has been gratuitous, and doesn't move the thread/theme along.
