Ice Cream Ants - Film Review
Thanks to Patricia Freeman at Independentfilm.com for the glowing review of Ice Cream Ants!
She writes:
“Ice Cream Ants” by writer, director, editor Jeremy Carr, brings us into the neo film noir world of “Lover,” and contains incredible dialogue and acting. Trapped in a nightmare world, Lover (played with an understated strength by Marcus Ashley) is compelled on a journey where his interactions with a temptress (played by the incomparable Goth femme fatal Jill Tracy) and a barstool philosopher (played by the great character actor Tom Noonan) force him to confront his own inner demons. Carr’s climactic bar scene offers a veritable cinematic feast of light and sound, of comedy and drama, as we watch Lover interact with a host of unusual and engaging barflies who would definitely find Cheer’s too bright and tame of a joint. As the story concludes and the viewer ponders the greater significance of the final frames, Carr’s brilliant storytelling emerges and continues to resonate long after the credits roll."
