"Z-Lister" is a Bristish 39-minute (not 30 as it states on IMDb) short film from 2012, so almost 5 years old. The writer and director is Kris Smith, co-writer is Martin Ballantyne who is also the lead actor portraying another Malkovich. I don't know why Z-list actors are considered likable. For the dedication to their craft? I disagree. To me, it is desperation and the lack of ability to realize that they don't have the talent, charisma and recognition value to becomes a-list actors. But of course the ones to blame are the people who don't cast them, right? Oh well, maybe they just care for their projects and don't want them ruined by untalented actors. Anyway, about this film here, it is entirely negligible in terms of drama, comedy, romance and story-telling in general, which means it's the perfect watch for everybody who appreciates Z-Listers. Apparently, that's quite a few looking at the ridiculously exaggerated rating this film has here on IMDb. I do not recommend the watch. Thumbs down.
