Blues Stop was screened for me shortly after it appeared in the festival circuit. I was not expecting much, having worked with student filmmakers for years and been inundated over the years by peoples first efforts. I was pretty damned impressed. This is no student film but a solid story with beautiful visuals and a definite cinematic voice. Alex appears to have learned a thing or two in the years since I saw his first (incredibly violent - yet impressive) short film. What struck me most was a sense of personal style and a deft handling of actors. I think this guy is going to go places and I am interested to see his next efforts. Well done - lets hope he gets a big film after this.
