Paradise - Georgie Henley and Caryn Waechter

Post Reply New Topic

One of my favorite people ever — Georgie Henley, of Narnia fame — co-directed and starred in a short film for the 2017 Straight 8 competition. Paradise was selected, among others, to premiere in London on July 9 (Georgie's birthday, coincidentally).

I don't know a thing about art or film. All I know is that Paradise has a calming effect on me. It makes me smile to see my favorite actress create a work of her own. Even if I don't understand every word of it, the poetry is beautiful, and it makes me happy.

(I may be biased. It is Georgie Henley, after all.)

I'll give it a look.

Super 8mm? Wow. Must have been a challenge to pull off Super 8mm. I can't even get the exposure right for my digital cameras. The short film was interesting. However, I had a hard time following the poetry.
