TAKE - A must-see.

I saw TAKE at a screening and was very moved by it. Performances by Driver and Renner were excellent. The cinematography was right on. Direction was tight. The whole film worked. Every aspect came together. Looking forward to seeing it again. Films that address this theme are difficult to make. Not to mention watch. I was uncomfortable at times. Uneasy. I found myself questioning things that I would rather not think about. But the filmmaker forged on. Continuing to push the envelope. It is an interesting script. It takes courage to shoot a film like this. I'm glad Oliver and his investors were willing to take the plunge. I hope they are rewarded. There are a lot of films out there not worth seeing. Films that focus on special effects rather than on more interesting matters. This is a character study that makes us look inward to see who we really are. Thanks.
