Review of A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints (2006) by Paul P — 06 Dec 2011
This depiction of harsh times in the Bronx is portrayed with perfection! I thought the performances from LaBeouf and Tatum were amazing! The plot is extremely engaging and every scene sent chills down my spine.
The cinematography, the gritty look, the handheld camera shots, and the low-budget production values, are all contributing factors towards what I consider an overall masterpiece in independent filmmaking.
Director Dito Montiel (in my opinion) has made his mark on cinema, creating believable characters to go along with a story that is inspired by true events. This film is a breathtaking work of subtle art filmography.
I highly recommend this movie to film lovers. "A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints" is a beautiful little film!
