Red, White and Blue (2024)

You know this is going to be gut-wrenching from the premise alone, your chest actually aches like it wasn't prepared once you get through it and, honestly, you weren't. Two years after its release, this piece of work remains truly prevalent, perhaps even moreso now that everything has aggravated tenfold. I come to watch this right after seeing Snow's appearance on Las Culturistas podcast and there's a brief mention of the true devastation that are her heavier performances... yeah, this, this might take the cake. Nothing like a shortfilm to truly showcase acting talent in the conciseness of constraint storytelling. Choudhury knew exactly what she was doing and Snow and Donenfeld did not disappoint to follow through.
