PIGFACE
It has been brought to my attention by my friends, boyfriend and even my mother that I am one of those people who can’t help but try and figure out what happens next when I’m watching a movie (a.k.a. Talk through the entire thing). Fine. It’s just that I need to be completely on the edge of my seat in order to shut up and say nothing— and that’s why my rec for this week is a crime thriller short that had my mouth clenched shut the entire time: PIGFACE. The three-minute short, written and directed by John Paul Lopez and produced by Elara Pictures, follows a woman who desperately needs her friends’ help with her dirty work, but can’t seem to spit out what it is she’s done. It’s fast paced (yes even for three minutes of content), gritty, and the ending left me begging to see more.
