Nocturne (I) (2014)
9/10
Nocturne with a beat
9 August 2015
I just read on Facebook that they will be showing Nocturne again at the NJIFF on October 11. This is amazing news! I highly recommend that anyone who missed this terrific film when it was first shown there go and see it.

Just like David Lynch's 'Blue Velvet' took you on a journey through the underbelly of what was really going in amidst the manicured lawns of suburban America, Saul Pincus' 'Nocturne' will give you a peak at the unique characters that co-exist at night beneath the streetlights of our big cities. Particularly this insomniac Cindy and her beau Armen, the sleepwalker.

While night can be a quiet time, this film is anything but. Driven by a fantastic script of carefully crafted minimalism, this feature rings loud with true human conflict. These characters need each other so badly yet are so forced by their own inabilities to remain silent to each other. Director Pincus handles this scenario with great care and knows exactly when to give and take.

With great cinematography and outstanding music, this film resonates loud on many levels. All is all, a beautiful film that deserves to be seen!
