The Truth About Average Guys (2009)
Great comedy, excellent performances, and already an awards winner.
I was at the Trail Dance Film Festival in Oklahoma and was able to catch the comedy, "The Truth About Average Guys" a low budget feature film. It really is an exceptionally well done film, considering the budget constraints and had me laughing for most of the film.
It won a number of awards at this festival, garnering the best of festival award, as well as best comedy, and the best actress award for Erika Walter. The whole cast delivers wonderful performances and are talented comedic performers which makes this film engaging from start to finish.
Katie, (Erika Walter) is the lead love interest of Jason (Ken Gayton), both young and talented performers who engage in a slightly unorthodox relationship. The twist is that Jason has lied to Katie about something rather important, and hilarity ensues to prevent the truth from coming out.
A really good independent film, a little slow moving at times, but definitely worth watching!!!
Stolen Horses (2008)
The ranching lifestyle is threatened by economics and a few young ranchers retaliate, with disastrous consequences.
Stolen Horses is an excellent short film that I saw at the Best Of Alberta showing at the Calgary Film Festival in 2008. It is beautifully shot and the acting performances are very believable and solid. This film tells a story that currently is unfolding all over the prairies and the United States. The ranching life for many comes to an end as wealthy urbanites looking for authentic ranching getaways begin to buy up the scenic land. The story focuses on one young man and his friends as they come to grips with the changes this brings to their lives. Out of anger and hurt that their way of life is being stripped away from them, they try and steal from the people who are upsetting the balance, and have to live with the consequences.
