Vincent and Alena Turturro's short film, GERI AND RICK is unlike most "shorts" of the day with their fast cuts and nonstop pacing... To the contrary, the Turturros allow the script / screen to breathe as the audience is introduced to Geri (Tammi Cubilette) and Rick (Kenny Borland) - two over-the-hill hustlers on the outskirts of town. Unlike most films, GERI AND RICK explores the subtle nuances of idle dialogue and the nostalgia embedded in silence as the backstory of these, seemingly secondary to the world at large, characters unravels on screen. Expertly acted by Cubilette and Borland, GERI AND RICK is a testament to 1970s style of filmmaking and the Turturro's are MASTERS of their craft! This film is spectacular in many ways and an absolute UNIQUE in its execution!
