Review of Fort Tilden (2014) by Matthew S — 13 Aug 2015
Just as I was becoming truly annoyed by this movie, it turn an unexpected turn.
As these two cloyingly vacant and cruel losers find their way into The Flatbush area of NYC, things take a ever-so-slight twist. By the time they actually reaching the "general" area of destination it seems like they are becoming as tired of each other as I was of them.
I'm fairly certain that this was Sarah-Violet Bliss and Charles Rogers' intent.
The final third of the movie finally takes these self-entitled dim-wits full circle. It is doubtful that these two characters will ever come to terms with who and what they are, but they do get more than either knows how to deal.
Both Bridey Elliott and Clare McNulty give spot-on performances. McNulty is actually quite brilliant. Bliss/Rogers' owe what works about this movie largely to these two actors.
