Review of Apple Pie

Apple Pie (1975)
10/10
Never have I been so devestated...
2 April 2019
...as I was when this movie came to an end.

How this film has anything less than a 7.5 rating is beyond me. It should be required viewing - especially for anyone in the arts industry.

Every choice made by every person involved - the writer/director, the cinematographers, the costume designers, the actors (most of whom were clearly given creative freedom to move around and adlib) was a perfect choice.

The whole thing is so genuine and authentic that it feels more like witnessing a camera follow real people around during a random day of their lives. You want to know these people and interact with them.

And as for the incredible dance number at the end: it makes "You Cant Stop the Beat" from Hairspray feel more like an 8 year-old's dance recital. If it doesnt have you on your feet, moving and shaking (or at least sitting there with a gigantic, goofy grin on your face), then you may want to check your pulse for signs of life.
