Close Call (2004)
One of the 10 Best Films I've seen in my life!
I was surprisingly shocked to see this kind of realism from an Asian American filmmaker. The story was very touching and I was able to relate to it 100%. Many of my close friends went through what the movie portrayed and I'm glad a film like this is out there. The different perspectives of the parents, the girl and the Asian culture was brought out perfectly. The editing was very unique and I'm glad to see a different style of film-making once in awhile. The style was mixed with new and traditional styles of shooting that I enjoyed very much.
I haven't seen a film in a long time that affected me the way Close Call did. I give props to the filmmakers and hope that they continue sharing these strong and courageous stories with the public. Definitely worth watching! Bring your parents or kids too. They might learn something.
