Filmmaker Joel Jay Blacker who’s become a welcome regular on Dn returns to our pages with his new comedy short Shoes Off, a hilarious and off-kilter portrayal of vulnerable masculinity. The film concerns two drunk best friends who after a rowdy night out return to their abode. There they decide to share their love for one another but when one of them passes out after asking his buddy to remove his footwear should that happen, the other feels the impulse to prove his recently declared affection in as many ways as he can. We’ve become such fans of Blacker’s heightened, colourful style here at Dn and Shoes Off is an excellent continuation of the director’s approach to filmmaking as he further hones his personal style of comedy.
