ALL SUN AND LITTLE WHITE FLOWERS

A movie I co-produced and AD'd on is about to come out on DVD. The first review was just sent to me and you will find it below. I am very proud of this one. If you want to see a film like you have never seen before, one made by one of the most relentless and singular voices in indie film, check this one out... or any of Larry's films.



"All Sun And Little White Flowers proves that you can't tie Larry Holden down. This guy cannot be pigeon-holed. He will always surprise you. With this film he throws us into a world of pain and joy and innocence and betrayal to tell a story that is hilarious, haunting and painfully intimate. To put it more succinctly; it is the most emotionally complex film he has made to date. Holden's writing, editing, and directing evolve with each film and here they are flat out brilliant. The film breathes and flows in a way that allows us to study what is being presented instead offorcing it down our throats. To do such a thing is a delicate balancing act, but he pulls it off without a hitch. His cast helps him accomplish all of this of course; every performance big and small adds something unique to the tapestry being woven. This is also his most visually stunning film. It has, I dare say, almost a noirish aesthetic at times and is certainly one of the more beautiful looking independent films you will see this year. The bottom line is you will not find anyone on planet earth putting out films like Larry Holden. All Sun And Little White Flowers proves that he continues to be a fierce and singular voice in the world of independent cinema. I loved this movie and have watched it too many times to count. And anyone that loves film needs to see it too."
