2012. USA. Amy Seimetz. 83 min.
2012. USA. Written and directed by Amy Seimetz. With Kate Lyn Sheil, AJ Bowen, Kentucker Audley. Combine Bonnie and Clyde, Wanda, Badlands, Panic in Needle Park and True Romance, then toss them all into the steamy backwoods of the Florida Everglades, and you'll have a taste of what's going on in Sun Don't Shine, Seimetz's plaintive ballad of doomed lovers veering off the blacktop. Leo and Crystal are drifters in a desperate embrace, running from something awful, with something even worse hidden in the trunk of their car. Inspired by 1970s American cinema, Seimetz relishes the overwrought pleasures of genre filmmaking while capturing something authentic and romantic along the way. 83 min.
