Starting Over Again

    You can find this short film on Vimeo. It's written and directed by Joseph McGovern.

     It tells the story of Greg, a guitarist in his younger days who has lost his passion for playing. He goes to a cafe night after night listening to amateur performers on open mike night and eventually finds his mojo to play again.

      As a short film, the concept works well. The various cast members do a good job with the material and I enjoyed the spoken word pieces and the song at the end.

       The camera work is well done but some of the editing is cut too quick and the flashbacks  don't quite convey why Greg lost his passion in the first place. But as a short, the story works and Greg is an engaging personality and musician.
