Acting
3 November 2008
Silence of Bees is a short story about a father and daughter and the relationship that they share. Overall the acting of the film was good in some parts but lacked in others. The man Jim Beaver who plays the father Parker Lam I personally thought acted phenomenal throughout the short film. He really set that mood as the accomplished writer and father figure. When Jim leans back and a swig and starts talking about how the word happy sounds funny it really seemed as if he was drunk. The woman Sharon Garnier who plays the daughter Alex McKenzie I thought acted just as well or even better. Parts such as such as when she begins crying after her father gives her the note was really convincing. The best part of the short film would have to be the little scene when Lam gets so called "stung by the bee" and Sharon runs over to check him out then shares a drink with him. Throughout the film the scenery was perfect for the dialog between Parker and Sharon because of so many different things. One being the lighting with the time of day and also the candles make it seem more realistic. Everything really seemed to come together from beginning to end. Good short film.
