Review of Gerry (2002) by Shawn B — 04 Feb 2007

Quite simply one of the most beautifully photographed films ever made. It probably has the least dialogue I've ever heard in a feature, and most of what is said is irrelevant anyway, but it is so scarce you cannot help but pay the utmost attention to it. The images and sound weave a hypnotic effect on the viewer (if you let it) and the ending elevates the film to the realm of parable.

Definitely not a film for everyone, as it requires the longest of attention spans.
